I can't believe anyone thought Swift would improve. Near the top of my "told ya so" list for this season.
Given the expectations...
Quick choice = Stromile Swift.
Suggestions?

Stephen Marbury. Larry Brown has a history of turning PG's around. See Billups and AI.
That is an extremely hard question. Most people don't pay attention to players that suck.
Quentin Richardson is the Regressive Player of the Year.
2004-05: 14.9 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 2.0 apg, 1.22 spg
2005-06: 8.2 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 1.6 apg, .71 spg
Jerome James, if I had expected anything out of him, belongs on this list, too.

Tyson Chandler, maybe... but he sort of falls into the same "What You've Seen is What You Get" group with Swift.
I was also expecting more from Josh Smith this year...
I was impressed by him. He looks like he's added 20 lbs, he looks smarter out there, not just wailing his arms widely on defense and using his legs in transition.
Next year he breaks out. Last year was about establishing his promise, this season was about learning and getting physically ready for the NBA. Let's hope next season he puts it all together.
I knew Guru would say Swift before I even looked in the thread
+3.2 ppg
+3.1 apg
+.30 in steals
All by only playing a minute more a game?
I think we're just picking on the Hawks now.
He ended the year on fire. 17.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 3.3 blocks and 1.2 steals in the month of April. If he can do anything close to that next year, he's an All-Star.
Chandler and Swift are two good names.
Yeah Chandler is more of a surprise, at least he used to play D and rebound. Swift just jumped high enough to get the attention of the Caspers of the world - few noticed he didnt' do much else.
Jerome James
^ Yup but you can't coun't Tim 'cause of injury. So Manu it is.
Kenyon Martin
brown has improved in his last 30 games
brown will be decent next year could even be better then some spur centers
Hmmmm, based on expectation ...
1. Eddy Curry - should have at least made them a contender to make the playoffs.
2. Marvin Williams - I know they weren't expecting him to be a star his first year, but I think they were expecting more than they got.
3. Rafer Alston - especially in comparison to Mike James, who he was traded for.
4. Antoine Walker - I think he's been really, really bad and not even close to what the Heat expected from him.
5. Larry Hughes - mostly due to injury, but still a very bid disappointment.
6. Jermaine O'Neal - especially after Ron Artest was traded, JO has not stepped up to lead his team to wins or an at ude and approach to winning.
i picked Johnson because i thought i would be hearing a lot more from him
He's with the hawks... what do you expect.
