Darko is probably the worst draft pick ever.
All Time draft steal - Brain Scalabrine Round 2 Picked 34th Overall.

Darko by a long shot!!

Some of my best steals ever:

John Stockton (1984, 16th overall)

George Gervin (1974, 40th overll, 3rd round)

Karl Malone (1985, 13th overall)

Kobe Bryant (1996, 13th overall)

Dennis Rodman (1986, 27th overall)

Alex English (1976, 23rd overall, 2nd round) -- one of the best shooters ever.

Bill Laimbeer (1979, 65th overall, 3rd round)

Shawn Kemp (1989, 17th overall)

Manu Ginobili (1999, 57th overall)

Michael Jordan (1984, 3rd overall) --- STEAL

I think Kwame Brown was a bigger bust than Milicic. But considering who Darko went ahead of, it makes him the worst.

Manu is an amazing steal.

morrison will make a comeback!!!!

^You would!

Darko. Because of who followed him...the pistons would still be a powerhouse if they had gone with anyone else.

Maybe overseas!!!

Worst pick ever, the Timberwolves selecting Ricky Rubio. At least the others on the list had a chance to bomb. Rubio never even chose to play! lol

This is a great thread. Still can't believe that Gervin was a 3rd round pick!

Ricky Rubeu supposedly is trying to make a deal with the T'Wolves.
