What kills me is still to this day I swear if that guy hadn't just given up and lost it, he might have still been a "bust" (look at the other guys in the draft), but he absolutely could have been a 12 year nba starter and been pretty useful. Still...you can't get them all right.
I tend to not follow guys as prospects that closely before the draft so I don't have too many failures here, but again if you don't really follow them as prospects.
I still laugh at the story where Darko was on Orlando and Coach Brian Hill was yelling across the floor to him an assignment. Darko didn't hear or understand, and then Scott Skiles, the OPPOSING coach, yelled, "he wants you to guard the middle"
