Two recent events have brought more attention to the group of the chart-and-eye show, one is that the Kings cut the 2014 high-eye show Jabari Parker, who may not be able to gain a foothold in the NBA; the other is that Edwards has recently improved by leaps and bounds, and under his attack with three goals (although injured), Wiseman, who is the 2020 top-notch, is in a somewhat awkward situation.
In fact, the NBA has always had the so-called "eye curse", and the past 20 years are no exception. Although in the past 20 years, there have also been outstanding list shows such as Tyson Chandler, Aldridge, Durant, Oladipo, Russell and Ingram, not only being selected as an All-Star, but even getting the MVP, but more than half of the list has "watered" for various reasons. This article will take stock of the "parallel goods list" in the past 20 years (counting from 2001).
1. Jay Williams, 2002
Williams, who was the same age as Yao Ming, was from Duke, who led Duke to the NCAA championship in 2001, was twice named the Best Player of the United States, was selected as the best player in the United States, and the No. 22 jersey was retired by Duke. He was named to the Rookie Team of the Rookie Season, but on June 19, 2003, Williams was hit by a serious car accident while riding a motorcycle and has since faded out of the NBA. Today he is an ESPN analyst.
2. Milisic, 2003
In 2003, the golden generation was born one of the most well-known parallel goods in the 21st century. After James, the Pistons chose Milisic and missed Anthony, Wade and Bosh. As a result, Milisic was swept out of the pistons for just over 2 seasons, and then moved to many teams and bid farewell to the NBA at the age of 27. Milišić then turned boxer and now runs a farm and has made a comeback in serbia's second division.
3. Emeka-Okafor, 2004
The 2004 draft was an excellent example of whether to choose between immediate strength and potential stocks. Between the potentially ambitious Howard and the more mature Okafor, the Magic chose the former and the Bobcats picked the latter. As a result, Okafor stole Howard's Rookie King Trophy, but that was about it. The 2004 NCAA champion, MOP and All-America Player of the Year left after only 10 seasons in the NBA before moving on to the Korean League. His nephew Jalil Okafor was also selected with the same high pick many years later (3rd pick in 2015) and was also unknown in the NBA.
Marvin Williams, 2005
In 2005, Williams won the NCAA championship with North Carolina and was named America's Freshman and ACC Division Rookie. With such an aura, he was selected by the Hawks with the 2nd overall pick of the same year, who missed Paul and Delon Williams as a result. Today, Williams has played in 1,072 games, averaging 10.2 points and 5.2 rebounds per game, which does not seem to be called "parallel cargo". But he did get left behind by the players in his current year who were below him (Paul, Delon, Granger, Bynum, David Lee).
5. Michael Beasley, 2008
In the 2008 draft, Rose and Beasley were a bit of a jerk. Beasley was honored that year, playing for Kansas, he was selected as the best team in the United States, the best freshman in the united states, the best player in the Big12 district, and the rebounding king of the NCAA. But by the time Rose was elected MVP, Beasley had left the Heat that had chosen him. In the NBA, Beasley did not achieve much, and he also played for CBA teams on many occasions.
Tabit, 2009
If you choose the most "water" list of the 21st century, it may be Tabit. While playing at the University of Connecticut, Tabit was known for his defense, and was twice named the Best Defensive Player in the United States and was named to the National Second Team. In 2009 he was selected by the Grizzlies, with Griffin in front of him and Harden and Curry behind. As a result, he was dropped by the Grizzlies after a season, said goodbye to the NBA at the age of 26, played only 224 games, averaged only 2.2 points and 2.7 rebounds per game, and was once the highest-ranking player to be sent to the development league (a record that was not broken by Bennett until 2015).
7 Evan Turner, 2010
When he played for Ohio, Turner performed well, having been named the best player in the United States and the best player in the Big Ten Division, and was selected as the best player in the United States, and his No. 21 jersey was also retired by the Kansas State Grand. He was selected by the 76ers with the 2nd overall pick in 2010, but has not developed well in the NBA since, announcing his retirement at the age of 32, averaging just 9.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game in his career. Turner wasn't a parallel, but the 76ers missed Cousins, Paul George and Hayward.
Derek Williams, 2011
At the University of Arizona that year, Williams was named the best second team in the united states, the best player and best rookie in the Pac-10 zone, and the best team in the district twice. After being selected by the Timberwolves as the top of the list, Williams was selected for the best rookie team and also played 12+5 in a single season, but in the end it was lost to the public, fading out of the NBA at the age of 26, going to overseas leagues, and winning the Bundesliga championship with Bayern in 2019. The Timberwolves missed Out on Ka Jr., Jimmy Butler, Klay Thompson, Vucevic and Kemba Walker.
9. McGiji, 2012
In 2012, Kentucky was full of scenery, not only winning the NCAA championship, but also winning the top 2 of the NBA Draft that year. But McGiggy failed to match teammate Anthony Davis in the NBA. At the Hornets, McGiggy left behind a single season average of 12+6 per game, but everyone can still remember his bizarre shooting posture. In the end, after being cut by the Knicks in the 2020 offseason, the 27-year-old McGiji was gone. Behind him were Bill, Lillard, Drummond, Middleton and Dream Green.
Jabari Parker, 2014
"Back then, Brother Alphabet assisted him." When it comes to Parker, fans will always think of this joke, in fact, Parker is included in this list is a pity. He is from Chicago's prestigious Simeon High School and was twice elected Mr. Basketball of illinois. While at Duke, he was voted the nation's best player and was named to the all-America's best team. At the Bucks, he averaged 20.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in a single season, shooting 49 percent from the field and 36.5 percent from three-point range. But frequent visits from injuries have ruined his NBA career.
Bagley, 2018
Bagley was scenic at Duke. He was named america's best player, winning the ACC Division's Best Newcomer and Player of the Year. But because he was one place higher than Doncic in the 2018 draft, he was destined to bear more criticism and ridicule. So far in his career, Bagley has averaged 14.5 points and 7.5 rebounds per game, but repeated injury patronage has caused his attendance to be only 56%, but the Kings have gradually lost patience with him. Especially in the recent past, the King's record has risen after his injury suspension, with 6 wins in 7 games, which has made his face even more disgraceful. He is in danger of becoming the "eye of the parallel goods list". (Supine Braces/Hairy)
