There are some great players on this list, but it also is a hall of fame for complete busts and head cases. Kwame Brown was a disaster, not only failing to live up to the hype but poisoning the atmosphere in the locker room. Derrick Coleman--who Charles Barkley renamed "Disturbed Child"--had more talent but was nearly as toxic. Joe Barry Carroll, nicknamed "Joe Barely Care Less" at Golden State, likewise. Joe Smith--not as bad as JBC, but another underperforming Warrior. Olowokandi--another # 1 pick by the Clippers who never amounted to much. Ralph Sampson, Pervis Ellison and Greg Oden were all brought down by injuries at the outset of their careers; Yao Ming stayed longer, but not long enough. Let's hope that John Wall and Derrick Rose don't see the same happen to them.

A bit hard on Carroll, no? He was an All-Star and averaged about 18 and 8 over his career. He wasn't a hall of famer, but he certainly couldn't be called a complete bust. Had he not gone to Italy for a couple years during his prime, he would probably be looked upon much more favourably. There have been much, much worse "busts" taken at #1.
