    Muresan wasn't a bad player at all. I think he won most improved player one year but injuries forced him to retire. My vote goes to Eric Montross. He was supposed to be real good going to North Carolina and coming into the NBA but he's really stunk it up.

    He didn't play at all for us because of injuries, so it's kind of unfair to say he was awful when he didnt have a chance to showcase his awesome talent.:p :D :p

    C'Mon, LAfadeaway33, you're over-looking the obvious, especially if you're a native of SoCal: ;) :D

    Benoit Benjamin. Million $ body and potential, $0.50 heart.

    I remember that mario bennett exhibition:

    6 free throws, 3 airballs, 2 nasty bricks, and one miracle from god that let one of them go in. it was amazingly bad.

    of course olden polynice has the worst back to back free throws in history. the first hit the backboard so hard that it either completely went back over the rim or just grazed it and the next one he managed to airball by 2 feet (being generous there, coulda been more).

    as for worst player, yinka might be a fairly good choice. i think his non-assist streak was around 76 games at one point which for yinka probably was only like 300 minutes as mentioned above.

    Matt Fish. Never seen him play, but his sorry a$$ was always on the bench. And any player on the Bulls when Jordan left....they all SUCKED!!

    These are sad:

    Charley Parks played one season in the ABA:
    68-69 Denver, 2 games, 5 minutes, 0 FGs made, 1 FG attempted, 1 personal foul. All other stats are 0.

    Chester McNabb played one season in the NBA:
    47-48 Baltimore, 2 games, 0 FGs made, 1 FG attempted, 1 personal foul. All other stats are 0.

    I don't know if there's anyone else that actually did nothing except take up space, even by the stats.

    :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Granville Waiters. I can't believe that no one has voted for him. He was painfully pathetic.

    Joe Stephens had game. I just dont think he got a fair chance with the team.

    Most likely, it's someone that was probably the 15th player on the team that no one really knows.

    Though, my vote goes to Jack Haley.

    It's a jump ball between Chris Dudley and Danny Schayes.

    The Nets and Clipper's first round disasters.

    I bet Portland fans think Sam Bowie is the worst player ever....
