    Make a team that would scare the hell out of any college team.... But that's it.

    PG: Marvin Williams
    SG: T-Will (I can not think of any major SG Busts)
    SF: Adam Morrison
    PF: Stromile Swift
    C: Hasheem Thabeet.

    Marvin Williams as PG? How about Sebastian Telfair instead.

    How is Darko Milicic not on this list? He was picked 2nd in one of the best drafts of all time.

    PG: Marvin Williams
    SG: Wesley Johnson
    SF: Adam Morrison
    PF: Stromile Swift
    C: Sam Bowie/Darko Milicic/Kwame Brown/Michael Olowokandi/Shawn Bradley/Hasheem Thabeet(take your pick)

    A lot of players I consider even greater busts because they were drafted before all time greats or superstars like Jordan, Wade, Melo, CP3, D Will, etc.

    Looks like SG is the safest position to draft.

    PG- Jonny Freaking Flynn (HE WAS THE 6TH PICK IN THE DRAFT!!)
    SG- O.J. Mayo (He was touted as the next Kobe and never lived up to hype)
    SF- Marvin Williams (He was drafted in front of DWill,CP3 and Bynum)
    PF- Micheal Beasly ( Dude was a beast in college, 2nd pick in front of Westbrook and Love)
    C- Greg Oden (Injuries ruined his career is seems)

    Come November OJ Mayo will be a starter in the league. The others will be coming off the bench or not playing at all.
    Mayo went from starter to 6th man in Memphis I believe(What-the poster, can prolly confirm that or not)

    Just lotto picks busts from the 2009 & 2010 drafts

    Jonny Flynn
    Terrence Williams
    Wesley Johnson
    Jordan Hill
    Hasheem Thabeet

    That would be a hell of a collegiate team.

    Hell maybe we should try to trade for W. Johnson so we can say we had all of these players.

    Ok Channing Frye started for the Suns, he was a lotto pick. Mayo was hyped to be an all-star, and elite scorer. Maybe time will tell.

    Kwame Brown? Jay Williams? Michael Olowakandi? Joe Smith, Shawn Bradley, the list goes on.

    I think Marbury was a bit of a bust too even though he had some high points in his career. His talent level was such that he could have been a hall of famer.

    ...and what about former Rocket pick Eddie Griffith? We had high hopes for him.
