I though it was really stupid that it was being reported that Robinson the former 5th pick in a good 2012 draft class was going to be dealt for a low first rounder in a what's expected to be a bad draft. Robinson's situation reminds me a lot of Chauncey Billups in 1997 when he was drafted by the celtics. There was no red flags in college about either player like they lacked a motor or were involved with the wrong crowd. Robinson led the nation in double doubles in 2012. I feel like if Robinson plays for a good coach who can maximize his strengths like a popovich or carlisle in dallas he can revive his career. Robinson just needs to make a rotation not an all star team to avoid getting the bust label. Shane Battier was a guy who was drafted 6th in 2001, never made an all star team but was part of the rotation on both competitive and championship teams. I don't hear anyone calling battier a bust.
