Bennett will be 25 in more than three months. However, this guy was recently laid off by the sun. He should be a top scholar who shined in the NBA at his peak, and now he can't even sit on the NBA bench. Bennett's existence almost made the NBA champion lose suspense!
In fact, the value of the champion signing is really high. Choosing a good champion may make the team a strong team for decades. Therefore, from Lalu Martin to michael olowokandi, to kwame brown and Auden, the topic of the best rookie has never stopped discussing. However, these people are nothing in front of Bennett.
Many people may think that Auden is not water, but is damaged. However, judging from the ending theory of the old beauty, Auden did not bring the value that a pioneer should have. It's a pity.
However, Bennett is different. Bennett's high school and college years were remarkable, but they didn't reach the level of "No.1 in the draft". Even when he was elected first, Bennett himself said that he was "surprised to be the first".
20 13 is indeed a draft year, but there are also talents such as letter brother, CJ Mackler, Noelesnor, Adams, Oladipo and Schroeder! Think about it. Bennett was a bit "not quite right" from the beginning when he became the number one scholar. The top five draft winners don't have his name at all, and even tend to fall out of the top ten!
At that time, the knight with the top pick needed a fighting force, but Noel, the top pick winner, was revealed three weeks before the draft, and he might miss the whole rookie season. In addition, the shooting guard has Vitesse, and the inside has Vallejo and TT, so the Cavaliers didn't think much about Oladipo and other inside, but at that time they predicted that the Cavaliers would choose Porter, Zeiler or Ryan, so when Anthony bennett became the No.1 scholar, everyone was shocked, including bennett himself.
Bennett is 2m 03 tall and can be qualified for the third and fourth positions. His advantages are obvious. Others can't outrun him in the fourth position, and others can't hold him in the third position, but his shortcomings are also obvious. The fourth position is not high enough and the third position is not fast enough. But Bennett's foundation is solid, but these are all based on holding the ball. At that time, the Cavaliers focused on cultivating Owen+Witsey's backcourt. Bennett doesn't have the ball, and Bennett's adaptability is really poor, so it's also very difficult when he is in the Cavaliers. This also created Bennett's embarrassing record of not scoring a goal in the previous 10 game! You know, he is the number one scholar!
After an embarrassing season, Bennett went to the Timberwolves, but Bennett's position remained the same and he didn't get more opportunities in the Wolves. At this time, his mentality changed too much. In other words, Bennett didn't show his ambition. After being laid off by the Timberwolves, Bennett went to the Raptors and the Nets. Every team took a fancy to his age and physical fitness. As a result, he let every team down. Both the Raptors and the Nets have the same ending-they were laid off before the end of the season.
So bennett became the first No.1 in NBA history to be laid off three times in the first four years of his career!
Not only that, why is he the best scholar? Let me show you some!
Bennett is the only top pick who was laid off without completing his rookie contract!
Bennett is the only No.1 scholar who didn't start in the rookie season!
Bennett is the only champion who got 0 points in the best rookie vote!
Bennett is the only champion who has been relegated to the Development League!
During the Raptors' period, Bennett was relegated to the Development League to "draw". However, the player ranked first in the development league averaged 9+3 per game. You should know that many players who can't play in the NBA have become gods in NBDL, such as ryan kelly, the water dispenser of the Lakers. This guy's first two games in NBDL were 34 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 28 points 12 rebounds respectively. There is no doubt that Bennett is so disappointing.
There are always people who think, "He is only 24 years old, and he will prove himself sooner or later", but we started saying this sentence three years ago. Three years later, it is obvious that Bennett didn't play his part well. Therefore, he became the most famous parallel draft champion in NBA.
