NBA Players You Were Wrong About

[NatiboyB]

Dejuan Wagner = the next Allen Iverson

Deshawn Stevenson

Dude was special and should of been a superstar him and Lebron....But his health didn't set up for that.

 

[CarltonJunior]

Ben McLemore

Thought that man would be a star.

 

[Sunalmighty]

A bunch of players from Duke

 

[CarltonJunior]

Acie Law should be on EVERYONE's list for anybody who's over 27 years old.

Kareem Rush
Malik Monk
Darko
Jerryd Bayless
Corey Brewer

It's not too late for Malik Monk, he got drafted into a bad situation but I think he still has the skills to turn it around.

 

[Broad Street Bully]

KJ McDaniels

 

[Archangel]

Ben McLemore

Thought that man would be a star.

After Ben didn't work out, i vowed never to trust another lottery pick from Kansas ever again. Has served me right so far except for Embiid

Ben
Weed plate
Thomas Robinson
Josh Jackson

Smmfh

I thought DBook was going to be a bust. He couldn't really get to the basket and that usually = bust for guys who don't play D.

I thought Doug McDermott was AT LEAST going to be Steve Novak/Jonas Jerebko...he's not even that:wowzers:

I'm still not quite sure how Mario Hezonia isn't at least a 6th man 6'8" can jump out the gym and has range

Perry Jones should have been a stronger but less quick KD:kobesad:

For my Dubs fans...I thought Nemanja Nedovic was really "EuRose" :bronwelp:

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Reece Gaines

 

[Archangel]

Acie Law
Brandon Jennings
Justise Winslow
Shabazz Napier
Andrew Wiggins
Glen Davis

Hell yea i was super high on Justice. I just knew bro would excel in that Miami culture but I'm still waiting on this nikka. Nikka bout to do me like Michael Kidd Gilchrist did me and break my heart

Man I was going through some mock drafts and started seeing players I was high on and they turned out to be scrubs
Wanted to share :

Tony Wroten Jr
Quincy Miller
Perry Jones
Acie Law
Kendall Marshall
James Young
Tyler Hansbrough

Tf happened to these guys?

James Young and Perry Jones were ruined by had situations/lack of player development whether their own fault or the orgs. Both had all the tools to he successful. At worst, James Young should be a starting caliber 3/D player and Perry should be a solid face-up 4 with range. I never saw Acie law, hansbrough, or kendal Marshall becoming nothing more than limited role players on good teams. They really didnt have the physical tools to excel per se.

Well to be fair,James Young just dropped 35 points on one of these NBA teams in like 28 minutes while being efficient he might be back

 

[Archangel]

Thomas Robinson crushed a nikka soul once he got traded for like the 4th time. Had to give up on breh.

 

[Chris Cool]

Kevin Durant. I thought he would be the goat. I thought he was gonna win the finals that first time and continue to for the whole decade.

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Proud to say most of these names mentioned in here I had as busts.

I’m batting a good .900

I was wrong on Shabazz (had him being a starting level PG)

I didn’t think Jaylen Brown would be as good as he is now, but the jury is still out

I thought Fultz was a justifiable number 1 pick

Also thought RJ Hunter had a future

 

[Floyd Pinkerton]

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