[malbaker86]

Ben
Weed plate
Thomas Robinson
Josh Jackson

Really thought MarShon Brooks would carve out a 10-year career as a scoring guard.

same thing I thought about with Courtney Alexander back in the day when he came outta Fresno State

 

[WesCrook]

Lewis Alcindor

I thought he was gonna be a bum when he came into the league

You must be up there in age, man

The Markelle thing has crushed my spirit.

The Markelle thing has crushed my spirit.

I don't know why you're acting like it's an open and shut case.

 

[Shadow King]

I was wrong as hell on

Jahlil Okafor - I just knew dude would be a dump into the post and get you 20 a night and 8rb type.

Malik Monk- I was saying the Knicks should of taken him I was thinking his game was big time and he would beast like Lou Williams.

Josh Jackson - I was just flat out wrong I thought he was going to be a beastly defender.

Willy Cauley-Stein - from his predraft and college game I thought dude would be an all world defensive type

Emmaunel Mudiay- I can go ahead and take my L....I thought dude had potential to be a star to match with the athletic talent and size....

Michael Beasly - I just don't know what went wrong dude even put up numbers in the league...He had all the tools and a great skill set.

He is but that skillset isn't valued

[Kliq_Souf]

Alando Tucker
Julius Hodge
Lionel Chalmers

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

Josh Smith - Thought he'd be a superstar
Gerald Green
Marvin Williams
Sebastian Telfair
Darius Miles


John Wall - Thought he'd be at the level of Steph/Russ coming out of college.

 

[Max.]

Jimmer...i thought his floor would be jj redikk

 

[Archangel]

Alando Tucker
Julius Hodge
Lionel Chalmers

You bout to make me cuss. This muhfukka Alando man
I was wrong as hell

 

[Cereal_Bowl_Assassin]

Russell westbrook....I didnt see what the scouts were seeing...I'm still not a fan of his game but I cant deny that he is one of the greats. Now he is on my favorite team...lol..karma in full effect

 

[Noah]

I thought Trey Lyles and Willie Cauley-Stein were gonna be big shyt I think WCS will have an up year with the Dubs and maybe Trey puts it all together in San Antonio, but I thought they'd both be there by now.

I thought Tristan Thompson wasn't going to do much and certainly didn't have a place in this league at center. But here we are a chip, a lot of boards, a Kardashian, and almost $100M later.

I wasn't sold on Zach Collins and really wanted Portland to keep Giles at the time, but he was really impressive in the playoffs. He's here to play.

nikka ANYBODY from North Carolina in the last damn near 20 years.
