    Rubio and Thabeet

    Blake, Blair, and Sam Young will go 123 in ROY.
    Don't forget Earl Clark, he'll be in the mix.

    I have to agree with Thabeet, although he might be a player in 3-4 years if he works hard (big men take time to develop).

    DeMar DeRozan

    Guy is athletic enough, but his lack of skill gives me doubt.

    DeRozan gets my vote. He got by on athletic ability alone in college. In the nba you need more than that.

    Austin Daye, F, Detroit Pistons.

    He's physically unprepared, is rail thin, has a knee history, lacks a true position, doesn't project as good defender or rebounder, and is going to a team that's in the process of being turned upside down. I think that's a recipe for collossal disaster.

    I read on a site that historically the sixth pick has had the most busts. Therefore I will pick Jonny Flynn.

    Brandon Jennings. I don't have any reasons, I just don't like the guy lol.

    Curry as a legitimate pick for bust though
    I will have to go with Jennings too. I think he is too full of himself and therefore, will not learn much.

    Thabeet is not looking too good either though, from his summer lge performances

    I think Curry will win Rookie of the Year. His numbers will be inflated playing for the Warriors and if you are in the rotation with Don Nelson you will be playing around 38mins per game. He will probably put up numbers that completely overstate how good he is as a player. Probably look for him to put around 18ppg in his rookie season.

    I have only seen clips of Gerald Henderson, but for some reason, I can either see this guy being a savior for the bobcats or a bust.

    As for Jordan Hill, I think his game is well polished and would fit into the NBA just fine.

    basically I agree, but Griffin just seems to own the other rookies! brin injuries it would be a big surprise, if he doesnt win ROY!

    as for busts...right now Thabeet leads the charts, but I think he will do well...at least beeing a solid rotation player....someone else from the lottery picks, will get lost completely! just dont know who at this point.

    Whos it going to be?

    The biggest draft bust IMO will be Thabeet. The guy has the tools, but in the NBA he will be dominated.

    Whos your pick?
    The Biggest BUST will be Jackie's Butler brother...(new spurm Dejuan Blair)

    Is it even possible for the 53rd pick to be a bust?

    For the next season my pick is Thabeet. As the 2nd pick people will be expecting a lot more than what he'll give. But I expect he'll be decent in a season or two. But up front it might be ugly.

    Long-term my pick would be Curry.

    Rubio will be a bust.
    Thabeet will be a starter because of the lack of centers in the league.

    Has nobody in here ever seen James Harden play or what?
    He'll be ROY.
    Write it down.

    Thabeet reminds me somewhat of a Marcus Camby during his younger years. Awkward offensively, rail thin, but a good help defender. Just that Thabeet looks worse.

    The biggest bust of the 2009 draft? You be the judge.



    Yes, there are 3 choices, since that is Chase Budinger in the background.
