I think the vanilla gorilla was exactly as advertised - neither bust nor steal
And yet he was the 4th overall pick! He was like a vet min guy for most of his post-rookie career, i feel like that's a pretty big bustaroonie
He was a standard issue run of the mill butt and he did butt things...just such a poop draft that you had people taking shmedium butts #4
I think the delta between what PG did production wise and his draft position / expectations is a fucking chasm in comparison
At least PG is useful / was a top piece on teams that won a lot of games / made playoff runs. Don't think that the same can be said for like anyone else on that list. He's definitely a disappointing #1 pick but I don't think he's a top 10 bust of all time

Sad to see Wiseman go (looking forward to see how he develops at SF if Jesse so chooses) but can't pay everybody and have had a huge crush on Winslow for like 8 seasons...and we need some TO efficiency in...
I started writing this day 60 then got sidetracked then had a bunch of travels so did this in transit. Was initially going to insult all 29 teams in opposite fashion of Hoff, but leaving that one up to you Joe! Thanks to Hoff for the inspiration though, we need more content and in your knight in...
