Eric Gordon is high on the list. So is Gallinari.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

I think you're wrong about Gordon, but honestly I don't trust who we'll draft there.

i was not impressed by DJ Augustine whenever I saw him play. I don't know if that equals bust.

I think BOTH Lopez brothers will have successful careers in the NBA.

I agree with Isle...Gordon will be bust. Should have stayed one more year

It depends on what you mean by bust. I don't think anyone that's project to go in the top ten will have to leave the nba, but I think some will be disappointing. Lopez will be mediocre and Anthony Randolph is going to be one of those athletes that doesn't produce.

Gallinari is now being compared to Nachbar. Lopez has bust written all over him. I am sure that Isiah is scouting hidden busts that he can advise Walsh on.

lopez won't be a bust, i think people just haven't seen him play enough. brook i think will be good with the potential to be a franchise center, robin will be a solid backup center at worst or a decent starting center at best. as far as the busts go, i would say: gordon (will be a decent scorer but not a player teams want), gallinari, LOVE i'm pretty sure won't be good, and jordan. Randolph is hard to tell, it's tough not to make the comparisons to swift and ty thomas though, and arthur will be okay but i don't think great.
