No.65438 +0: michael olowokandi (No.0998 1) Clippers olowokandi has excellent physical quality and skills as a center. It has also been favored by many media in the draft, and winning the first place in that year was really deserved. The Clippers hoped that olowokandi would become the second Olajuwon and lead the fragile Clippers into a new era, but olowokandi played a big joke on them. After entering the NBA, olowokandi didn't give full play to his basketball talent, recovered from injuries at the beginning of the season, and didn't gain real dominance inside. After five failed seasons with the Clippers, olowokandi has packed his bags and started wandering around the NBA team. Ironically, among the 3 1 rookies behind him, there were such superstars as Bibby, vincent carter, paul pierce and Nowitzki. Olowokandi deserves to be the top ten failed draft in NBA.
2. benoit benjamin (1985 ranked 3rd overall) Clippers may be doomed to make mistakes in the draft. At that time, karl malone, joe dumars, chris mullin and other superstars ranked behind benoit benjamin, but Benjamin's performance was really hard to compliment. Now few people will know that Benjamin explored flowers in high school in the draft.
3. Dennis hopson (1987 3rd overall), another player with unmatched strength and ranking in the Nets, has been forgotten after playing in the NBA for several years.
4. steve francis (1999 ranked second overall) Grizzlies We don't doubt that Francis doesn't match his ranking, but comment on whether the achievements he can bring to the team can match the ranking in the draft. Needless to say, Francis is known as the "spring king" on the court, which shows that his jumping height is extraordinary. But Francis is destined to be a hero who can only fight alone, and can't be a hero who leads the team to victory. After the Rockets played Yao Ming for several seasons, he was traded to Magic, and now he is in new york. Francis's life is getting worse and worse.
5. Stephon Marbury (1996 No.4 overall) is the most Francis-like in Bucks' top ten draft. Both of them are first-class defenders, and their ability to score in singles is excellent. Marbury's second pass has outstanding breakthrough ability. But the title of "lone wolf" also proves that he will not be liked by coaches in the NBA, which emphasizes the overall attack. After parting ways with Garnett, the Wolf King, Marbury, the streetball king of new york, came to new york and started an unsatisfactory NBA trip. If time could be turned back, Bucks would definitely choose one of Kobe Bryant, Nash and ray allen instead of the lone wolf.
6. Lai-Buys (1986 No.2) Buys, a Celtic, is a superstar in college, and the Celtics are going to take him as their successor and the leader of a new generation of green corps. But on the second day of the draft, Buys died suddenly because of overdose, which shocked the whole American basketball. From then on, the Celtics stepped into the trough and never recovered. So far, the sudden death in prejudice is still full of doubts.
7. Niokoz Stikishvili (ranked 5th in 2002) Nuggets, a blond man from Europe, has the same high choice as Stoudemire, but his performance is hard to match his ranking. Now it is unknown in the NBA.
8. kwame brown (200 1 No.65438) Lang kwame brown, the top genius of the Wizards, was hand-picked by Jordan, a "flying man", and his strength will certainly not be so bad. Brown, a tall center, has flexible footwork and good feel. Once considered as a future superstar. But unfortunately, "Flying Man" Jordan sometimes makes mistakes. After a frustrating rookie year with the Wizards, Brown was traded to the Lakers. Help Kobe "Peter Pan" conquer the world in the Lakers. In this year's playoffs, the performance is quite satisfactory, which is really difficult to meet its position as the number one scholar. Perhaps our top pick Yao Ming came to the Lakers, and it is also a mystery that solar energy can't enter the second round this year.
9. Dakota milicic (No.1 pick in 2003) Pistons can see Wade and Anthony behind him. Now they are the leaders of their respective teams. Now there are media reports that James rejected the highest salary contract offered by the Cavaliers, and Wade and Anthony are also considering renewing their contracts with the highest salary. As for milicic, the team manager has never made a statement. You can see the gap between him and them at present. However, he is still young and gets too little playing time in Pistons. Now he is in the magic team of "Junior Gang", I hope he can clear his name.
10. shawn bradley (1993 ranked second in total) 76ers, the star who chose to leave the reputation of "the best player in the NBA" to the little giant Yao Ming and retired, I believe everyone will not forget, and even remember the stunning smash of McGrady in front of him in the playoffs, which may be used as an analysis of him: the evaluation is very high, but it is more overestimated.
