Anyone mention Greg Oden yet?

Which NBA player did the LEAST with his talent
- Thread starter Redrifle
- Start date
Jordan couldve been the GOAT SG if he wasnt carried by Pippen
Dwight Dee
Rookie
First name that popped in my head. After that 80some mill contract (crazy money at the time) dude started gettin flabby and sick. Oh and Darius miles. I thought he was gonna be the next KG.
Derrick Coleman
nikkas who know basketball know he's at the top of the list.
Like others have already said Derrick Coleman should be at the top of this list. He easily should have been a 25 and 12 type if he wanted it enough and should have been the standard barrier for what power forwards could do. Tim Thomas was a disappointment too in that he could have been a top 10 player if he would have worked hard enough. Stanley Roberts was another player who wasted a lot of his potential and should have been a dominant big man. Eddy Curry could have been the best center in the league if he cared to stay in shape and didnt eat everything that wasnt nailed down. For the talent that he has OJ Mayo should be a better talent then what he is. No reason why he shouldnt be a 22ppg scorer right now in the league.
I think the criteria needs to be established. To me the list should only be players with all-star/superstar talent, but role player status. Players that were stars/all-stars but not HOF status don't count. I don't think that you can really count players that really had no talent outside of size and athleticism, either.
With that said, I'm adding to my list of LO...
Tim Thomas
Randy Foye
Bynum
Jeff Green
Blatche
Beasley
I'm gonna say Jamal Crawford
JR Smith (but these 4 are idiots, but Crawford has hella turned it down)

Breh fools in here naming Bynum and others players who cant control getting injured.
He was close to dominant when healthy, not his fault his body gave out, and he did more for the league outside the US than anyone can imagine.

Yao made Kobe LEAN BACKI love the guy but i gotta put Yao Ming in there
Derrick Coleman
Rasheed Wallace
Stephon Marbury
Shawn Kemp
Antoine Walker
This is based only from what I saw
Webber at least made 6 All NBA teams.
Sheed made zero
Sheed (along with Billups) led his team to a ring and was a 4x all-star. And he didn't choke in big games.
Webber was a choke artist and would've been a better player if he applied himself more and showed some balls in the 4th quarters of games.

Rest In Power Kobe
a) Sheed nutted up in game 7 against the Lakers when he was the featured player. 100% fact. He missed 2 big free throws and struggled big time.Sheed (along with Billups) led his team to a ring and was a 4x all-star. And he didn't choke in big games.
Webber was a choke artist and would've been a better player if he applied himself more and showed some balls in the 4th quarters of games.
b) Sheed never averaged 20 points a game in his career.
c) Sheed never averaged 10 rebounds a game.
d) Sheed never made an All NBA team
Chris Webber was by far a better player than Sheed. Do not sully Webber by comparing the two and saying Webber wasted his talent.
Sheed didnt even want to be the featured player for his teams. At least Webber was in a position to choke. Sheed didnt want to be the man on his teams.
