If you remember, he was the #2 overall pick in 2003, behind Lebron James. What is more shocking is the three players after him: Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, and Dwayne Wade.

All four of those are high quality players, and future hall of famers (probably) in James and Wade.
Which opens up the debate, was Darko the biggest bust EVER. I think that in light of high quality of players around him, it can be said he's the worst.

Some people will look at Michael Olowkandi (1998), the #1 overall pick. But in light of who came after him, I dont think comparitively he's THAT big of a bust (next players are: mike bibby, raef lafrentz, antwan jamison, vince carter).

But those are my thoughts. what do you think?
