Out of the top 10 lottery picks who do you see being a bust
Posted on 6/27/14 at 2:07 am
Posted on 6/27/14 at 2:07 am
1. Cleveland Cavaliers: Andrew Wiggins, G/F, Kansas
2. Milwaukee Bucks: Jabari Parker, F, Duke
3. Philadelphia 76ers: Joel Embiid, C, Kansas
4. Orlando Magic: Aaron Gordon, F, Arizona
5. Utah Jazz: Dante Exum, PG, Australia
6. Boston Celtics: Marcus Smart, PG, Oklahoma State
7. Los Angeles Lakers: Julius Randle, PF, Kentucky
8. Sacramento Kings: Nik Stauskus, G/F, Michigan
9. Charlotte Hornets: Noah Vonleh, PF, Indiana
10. Orlando Magic: Elfrid Payton, PG, Louisiana Lafayette
I could see Smart to Celts end up not being what some predict.
My 2 "semi" sleepers considering they aren't sleepers being a top 10 pick but surprising some people are 8)Staiskus, Michigan and 10) Elfrid, bbbbitch I'm from Louisiana

Gordon
Embiid because of injury concerns

I wouldn't be shocked if Embiid goes the way of Greg Oden. We've seen that shite too often.
Also wouldn't be shocked if Wiggins doesn't live up to the all-world hype he had before the college season. Admittedly that's died down at this point. He has the potential if he finds the gear, but at this point I'm jaded with all things hype related.
I don't think this draft has a superstar. Just solid players that maybe log a few All-Star appearances.
I hope I'm wrong. This draft has a high floor, low ceiling. But I don't know shite.

Gordon and Exum- don't know much about them
Embiid- just don't see it playing out well

I think Wiggins will bust.
I wouldn't be surprised if Smart and/or Randle end up having the best careers out of the top 10

Embiid if he can't get/stay healthy.
Though if he does, it's 28 and 15 all day every day.

Depends on how they handle him. If he develops a jumper, then watch out. He has all the physical ability in the world though, for sure.

I think it'll be Stauskus and not because of him, but the team he's going to. Exum is boom or bust to me. Either he'll be that guy who you are like holy shite so this is the beast that they were hiding or it'll be holy shite, this guy needs to go back in hiding.

Embiid I see being a bust, mainly because of injuries. If I had a second pick, I would pick Payton.

Stauskus and Vonleh, definitely. Embiid could just as well.

Julius Randle, who i like. But i think he is too one dimensional, and too left handed dominant.
people compare him to Zach Randolph, but i dont see it. He's more like David Lee to me, who has developed nicely into a good scorer. But i see him more like the young Lee than the current one.

Exum and Embiid are the easy picks here, Exum because there's not a lot of data around him like the others and Embiid due to injuries.
No one else jumps out as obvious bust material besides them and tbh I don't think either are busts. Like another guy said upthread, high floor on this class.
