Favorite Player(s) who never made it big in the NBA?

LeonfromNC · 05-31-2012, 11:38 PM

1. Rafer "Skip to my Lou" Alston (Streetball Legend who bounced around from team to team)
2. Jay Williams (I hate Duke, but I liked watching him play)
3. Randolph Childress (Played with Tim Duncan at Wake Forest and could shoot the lights out)

Greg Oden and Brian Scalabrine

Keon Clark (one of the best shot blockers in the league when he was at his tops).
Terrence Williams, he has a frame like Lebron, and is reaaaaally athletic but didn't blow up.
Carlos Arroyo, he was really fast and had some handles but didn't do too much with it all.
Rod Strickland, too damn underrated, not one all-star appearance and he was a top notch point guard.

Jonny Flynn, hobby wise. I was going to start and pc him & i'm glad i never did. I was close to buying his NT RPA /99 for around $125-$150 when it first went live. But you never know, MINN was loaded with PG's i believe and then he went to portland. Now idk what's he up to.

lb_sa · 05-31-2012, 11:57 PM

Ron Mercer - I mean he had a pretty decent career and was on the rise prior to injuries, but man the kid was a talent..

balkman! a gamecock and a knick?! what could be better...oh maybe his work ethic...it was entirely his fault he couldn't at least become a decent roll player...the dude just could NOT care less lol...but living a large part of my life in SC i became fond of the gamecocks so i was hoping he'd pan out..kind of never thought he would tho...

Harold "Baby Jordan" Minor... he was supposed to be the face of the early Miami Heat... dude might have been one of the worst players of all time haha.

Took the Heat about 5 years to recover from him.. until Pat Riley sent the Knicks a fax message :-)

Glenbrook North. Nice. Scheyer was a stud for them even as a sophomore. His career was ended by Derrick Rose and Simeon though. Great game.

My choice would be Darius Miles. I used to love that guy.

MikeMamba · 06-01-2012, 12:16 AM

Jimmer!!!!!!!!!!! But he still has a chance if the Kings play him.

He can be something like JJ Reddick

Kingbudd · 06-01-2012, 12:21 AM

Brent Barry had the genetics and ability, but after winning the dunk competition, never did much after.

BullsFan747 · 06-01-2012, 12:31 AM

He never actually made it to nba, although he probably would have if not for a serious neck injury, but it would have been cool to see ronnie fields in the nba.

i used to have an auto where he printed out "Kool Renaldo Balkman" on the sticker, it was basically the sweetest card ever

Tarheelsfan2012 · 06-01-2012, 12:37 AM
