I'd say definitely in the NBA. In baseball Steve Chilcott was picked No. 1 in 1966, one ahead of Reggie Jackson, David Clyde was No. 1 overall in 1973, two ahead of Robin Yount, three ahead of Dave Winfield, In 2004 Matt Bush was No. 1 overall, one ahead of Justin VerlanderJumb0 said:Is Anthony Bennett the worst #1 overall pick of all time, in any sport?Reading 2004

"I play good, hard-nosed basketball.
Things happen in the game. Nothing you
can do. I don't go and say,
"I'm gonna beat this guy up."0 -
I'm not really factoring in players that were taken after...just based solely on what the #1 pick did.
I think it's hard to say anyone was worse than Bennet. 4 years in the league. 4 different teams. Averaged 4.4 points and 3.1 rebounds.

What did he do in college? I lived in Vegas for 30+ years, so I follow UNLV a little bit….and I had never heard of himJumb0 said:I'm not really factoring in players that were taken after...just based solely on what the #1 pick did.

Busts?
I have a bet with a friend.
I say Tom Brady throws more touchdown passes THIS YEAR, than Bears 1st round draft pick Justin Fields throws in his entire Bears career.
Geez, I hope I am wrong.Take me piece by piece.....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....0 -
LaRue Martin is also considered a #1 pick as a Bust.SUMMARYCareerG271

Nets clear Kyrie to play in road games.
Hours later Kyrie placed in Covid protocol.This weekend we rock Portland0 -
Ja Morant should be an all star starter and Desmond Bane should win most improved player but he plays in Memphis and probably won’t even get votes.0

I am the biggest critic of Mr Westbrook but I don't think people w a high average of assists have many zero turnover games. Consider that Chris Paul has played 1100 games and 100 of them were zero turnover games.23scidoo said:
Not saying that Westbrook isn't great in this statistic it's just one of those bad ones that you can tear down a bit.
He is playing really bad for the Lakers right now.0 -
Yep. This seems like another one of those weird random stats designed to catch people's attention. I was arguing about in the Sixers thread. The best point guards in the league average at least 3 turnovers a game. Russ leads the league in turnovers for pg's it seems, but to talk about the last zero turnover game is kind of pointless.tempo_n_groove said:

WITH THAT SAID....Russell Westbrook has been overrated for years. lolPost edited by The Juggler onwww.myspace.com0 -
Yep. I have always called these stupid ass stats out. It is a great "Look at me" grab. I can easily look up or crunch my own numbers to let everyone smell the waffing bullshit from it, lol.The Juggler said:

Yeah, that's not true. He has been a top 10 guy for years. you don't average a triple double 2 years in a row and play bad. He isn't my ideal type of player and I do say he never wins a championship but to say that he is bad is just silly.23scidoo said:

I thought he and KD together were amazing actually. They should have beat the Warriors 2 years in a row but for whatever reason couldn't. KD bailed and joined them. What's that tell you?0 -
Do you remember the video how he takes the rebounds and makes those triple doubles??tempo_n_groove said:

He doesn't grab rebounds like Barkley or Rodman, no one does that anymore. That art is gone. Gobert gets so many because no one goes up against him and he's bigger than everyone else.23scidoo said:

If he tweaked his game ever so slightly I'd love him.
Overrated? Yes I 'll say that in a way.0 -
