my not being a basketball player doesn't make him any less of a bust. he is a bust in comparison of what he was supposed to be. and the millions he made are nothing compared to what he was supposed to have made.

Jimmer is everything but a bust. He didn‘t get a fair chance in the NBA but proofed overseas what he is capable of.
The NBA - with all the international influence - is not the only league, where basketball is played on a high level. Leagues like in Spain, Italy, Greece and Germany are really buzzing aswell.
So don‘t be ignorant or call him out for a One-on-One. Let‘s the who the bust is then.

Not sure how you can call him a bust. He's simply undersized for the NBA.
He's averaged 36PPG as an international player, made $8.6M+ over the course of 8 seasons in the NBA and another couple million outside of the NBA (China and now Greece, $TBD), and even launched his own shoe line in China.
If that's considered a bust by your standards, sign me up to be a bust. I'm in.
