      Most gruesome, but not necessarily worst in terms of recovery. Bones heal easier than ligaments and tendons due to available blood flow. Cousins, Wall, Hayward all had the latter.

      Thomas Robinson is a bust. Played only a half season with the Kings and was traded midseason in his rookie year. Good player but mostly rely on athleticism. Can't defend and can't shoot. Picking Lillard was the best option that the Kings should do even if Lillard was already 22 at that time.

    Also this was around the time that true center era was beginning to go. Now there are a lot of players who are PFs which could be playing center and with everybody wanting to score, centers who protect the rim are a dying art.

    Boogie Cousins was on his way to being one of the best big men of his generation. It's a shame that injuries made him a shell of his former self because he was on his way to a first ballot HOF career. Also if he'd have stayed in Denver and played just one more season, he would have had a ring. Because just playing 14 mins a game for them he was averaging nearly ten points and five and a half rebounds.

    Bro, Monroe was a Bonafide starter for Milwaukee not a bench warmer. The hype was real when we signed him to replace Zaza pachulia, it was as big a name as we could ever imagine bringing on in our small market. Sanders had no beef with the coach, dude said he suffered from depression, so he signed a huge contract and then turned around and bailed on the team. He prolly threw jason Kidd under the bus many years later when he realized he needed more money and started lying about people. What a punk.

    I really wish Hayward hadn’t’ve left Utah. We would never have seen that horrific leg injury for starters, he was a great fit for Utah’s system, and it would’ve been interesting to get to see him play with Mitchell. I was so disappointed when he left since it was that same draft offseason!

      @@antisious Lin was healthy when he was removed from New York for whatever reason (not gonna blame a specific person but the environment was surely not ok) and then whichever team he went to, didn't need him to be anything more than a roleplayer. Injuries happened later when he was finally the guy in Brooklyn.
      Cousins spent his entire career in Sacramento. If he was on a capable team then maybe he never gets that badly injured or at least makes the playoffs.
