Pretty good list, although the Steve Francis pick doesn't make any sense.

Francis on the list is retarded.

Darco should be higher. Kandiman>Darco, it's not even fricking close either especially when you consider the other studs in that class.

Yeah. Darko should be #1 considering who was drafted behind him.

he said that impact of the player for the team that drafted him was one of the primary factors, so i understand the kwame pick.

i think olowokandi pick was worse than the kwame brown pick.
i mean, almost nobody picked right in that 2001 draft, and everyone was still unsure of euro's (pau gasol went no.3) and tony parker went 25.

not nearly as bad as not picking paul pierce.

he should re-title to "bad draft picks" and not busts

and in any case, unless you can find a guy who was a negative contributor, fran vasquez has to be #1

yeah it's not like there's a lot of prime rib in that draft

oh they could have picked eddie curry? SLOW DOWN (trading brand for the ability to pick chandler was worse than kwame #1 fyi)

he was still a lottery pick, and he literally was like, "oh you drafted me? later"

At least half the players on his "dishonorable mention" list are decent NBA players.

Also, Chris Wilcox makes the list when Dajuan Wagner was draft immediately after him. Its been years since Wagner was even in the league.

Plus how is Sheldon Williams only honorable mention? I think everybody on the planet,except Atlanta, knew that guy couldnt play NBA ball.

Maybe too early, but Brandan Wright might be as bad a pick as Kwame Brown for Jordan.(Kwame, Morrison,and Wright? Wow!)

In their eyes they were getting another "twin towers" duo. They were horribly wrong. Curry is decent when he wants to be and Chandler is a joke without Chris Paul.
