2013 nba draft worst ever so far?

[bjpenngoat]

2014 doesnt look to great either but Im giving parker another year to grow and wiggins is a great player with a bright future.

in 2013 anthony bennett was the #1 pick dude sucks so bad. Hes been on 3 teams already in three years what does that tell you.

The only players that have panned out so far are Giannis who is awesome to watch, Oladipo who is very solid so far, Michael carter williams who started off with very respectable numbers on a horrific team but is now on a good team with pedestrian numbers but his play is very solid and I would say that CJ mcollum erupted this year and he may be a real player. But look at the rest of this draft its terrible and most drafts have at least ONE superstar this one didnt have any so far. I think 3 years is a good litmus to determine what a player will be in the nba. Not many guys become something else after 3 years of being in the league.

It's up there, but still pretty early. The 2000 draft was horrific and imo the worst ever. 2006 is up there too.

2013 isn't bad at all. Quite a few players are starters or getting significant minutes already with good prospects to improve going forward.

#2 Dipo - starting SG with Magic
#3 Otto Porter - starting 3 and D SF with Wiz
#5/6 - Alex Len / Nerlens Noel - developing big men getting minutes
#8 Caldwell Pope - Starting SG with Pistons
#10 CJ McCollum - Damn near All star this year alongside Lillard
#12 Steven Adams - Starting C and all around Brute for OKC
#15 Giannis - Future All-star and all around Freak
#17 Dennis Schroeder - About to send Jeff Teague packing become Hawks PG
#21 Gorgui Deing - Solid all around big man for T-wolves
#27 Rudy Gobert - Stifle Tower, Anchor for Jazz.
#31 Allen Crabbe - Getting big minutes with Portland this playoffs

Some other solid contributors in this draft as well, and I didn't even include Mr inefficient #11 Michael Carter Williams.

No HUGE stars outside maybe Giannis but that's a solid draft.

geez you are right...2000 was abysmal. dairus miles and stromile swift wow what a bunch of scrubs.

Luminaire that is a very fair assessment of the draft so far.

2014 has been worse than 2013 so far. Their only redeeming part is they have a couple good second rounders in Jokic, Clarkson, Powell, and Grant.

Darius Miles lol, haven't heard that name in a while. What a thug. He made more news in the police blotter in East St louis than he did on the court.

I would know, I wrote the Blotter for that area when I was interning at the St louis suburban journal.

 

[MindsetsAndReps]

I'd still give the 2013 draft guys some more time, McCollum really started to break out just this year.

Holy cow 2000 was horrific. You can legitimately say that Jamal Crawford is the biggest star from that draft.

Michael Redd at #43 was the best player to come out of that draft

 

[Frank23]

I've seen worse.
