Players we covet on other teams...who stink

Here are the all-time top 5 binkies from other teams:

These are players we have obsessed with and spend too much time talking about who actually stink. Inspired by the Birdman thread. :

1. Luke Walton --How many luke Walton threads have we had over the years? The guy threw one nice no look ally oop to shaq in the finals, and suddenly he was larry bird.

2.Robert Swift -- I know Ainge loved him, but that was a long time ago. The pimply faced teen never turned into the hot adult. He just kept on having bad acne.

3.Chris Duhon -- We love this guy. Decent player, but he really isn't good enough to get that worked up about. We treat this guy like he was Bob Cousy. We love Duhon.

4.Birdman -- This guy is a bum, let's be honest. He had one good 40 game stretch in his career. What does it say about someone who had to stop smoking dope to get a big paycheck.Yett.....he couldn't do it. Yeah, just the kind if player I want.

How many more fit the bill.

Awesome thread.

But no way you put luke walton over swift. I don't know how you are ranking this but, Swift threads are all over the place. Plus walton is at least better then swift. Walton also has history here, swift is just a big red headed goon.... Sorry for the rant, but I like walton, while I can't stand swift. It was bound to come out the way it did.

This season before he came here, Cassell. Never seen so many threads, "When Cassell gets here" "This is why we need Sam I am" "If we had a vet. PG like Cassell" "Rondo Sucks" etc.....

A lot of euros really got me angry ROKO UCIC! YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!

Patrick O'bryant. People still want that bust.

There are many others....

Last year, I was all about getting Juan Carlos Navarro as our backup point.

Your thread needs to be retitled. Because the last time I'd checked, the Lakers (Walton) and the Hornets (Andersen) were in the playoffs this season as the top two seeds, respectively. Hey, I'm going by your list.

I have always wanted this guy since his days at UCONN:

Loads of talent but I guess he hasn't figured it out since apparently Milwaukee is trying to get rid of him.

He means the players stink. Not the teams.

How could I forget Spanish Chocolate?

We obsessed over him, devised trades to get him, and now POrtland has drafted 20 more PGs to take his place.

Also, remember how stoked we were to get Shammond Williams and Luke Jackson? Those guys stunk too.

The Euro's annoyed me. We have had more Let's get Darko! threads than I can deal with. I think the Walton want has annoyed me more than Swift, that's why I put him No. 1.

Walton made ONE GOOD ALLY OOP pass in his career, and it is sustaining him.

we already have Luke Walton on this team. He is just about 30 pounds heavier and calls himself Scal.

jfs1000d · Post #20 » by **jfs1000d** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 5:43 pm

Charlie V, HUBBA, HUBBA>

Oh wait, here we go again.

The great Sarunas Jascvecious (SP?) and the unusual love of Donnell Harvey are good ones.

Remember when we had to go to babble fish for a Sarunas quote from a Spanish league paper? Then some morons couldn't undersatand why the English translation wasn't very literate (weird phrasing) LOL.

He stunk when he came to the NBA.
