To Richard Hamilton's defense,he was injured this season for awhile and hasn't got on track like his old self.
 
Mario Chalmers(Heat) in my opinion has regressed a bit,went from being a starting pg to buried behind the backup for a minute.Now he is the primary backup to Carlos.

Im not overly impressed with Perkins this season..im not going as far as saying he is a flop but he seems to be regressing a bit.His game is at a standstill in my opinion,not much growth this season.

what about a gun toting, oft injured, overpaid wizard?

TP for stating what should have been obvious to me.

He single handedly changed the future of that franchise with his decisions. This was supposed to be a bounce back year for him and his team. Now they are left with none of the core players they started the year with. It's pretty amazing.

Uhh guys did you miss the part where I said not to include him in my intro cause it was off the court?

Iverson was a big bust for two different teams, though it wasn't that surprising.  He couldn't accept a supporting role (6th man or bench player), so his career is over.

Richard Jefferson is definitely a big bust - a rare miscalculation for the Spurs organization.  He doesn't seem to fit with their team at all. 

Al Jefferson has been kind of disappointing, taking a lot longer to come back from his injury than expected and also not helping his team win many games at all.  I didn't expect the Timberwolves to actually be worse this year.

Rasheed Wallace definitely qualifies, although I think it's in part because people had higher expectations for him than they should have.  With the benefit of hindsight, though, adding him to the team definitely wasn't as big a help as anybody thought it would be.  It's pretty laughable now looking back to the beginning of the season when some people though Rasheed might contend for 6th man of the year.

I'm disappointed that Anthony Randolph hasn't really done much this season.  More than a few people talked about him as a potential Most Improved Player candidate, yet he hasn't played more than 20 mpg and is currently out with an injury.  A lot of that can be attributed to Don Nelson, who never plays young big men who can't shoot (he'd rather play Anthony Tolliver than Andris Biedrins), and insists on putting AR at center when he's really a pure PF.  I was really hoping Randolph would get traded to a team that would actually utilize and develop his considerable talents.  He's still super young so it's not too late by any means, though.

Michael Beasley hasn't made much a splash at all in the NBA so far, which is fairly surprising.  He wasn't fantastic in his first year but he did show quite a bit of potential.  I haven't watched the Heat much this year, but from what I've read and seen it doesn't appear that Beasley has shown much improvement in his game this year.  That's got to be disheartening for Heat fans considering he was the #2 overall in '08.

No Yes sorry  

He was pretty bad before that happened too. I guess I would go with Vince Carter. I really thought he would look interested playing on his first bonafied contender in his career.

I gotta think that if you ask the Kings they are going to sat Spencer Hawes and Jason Thompson have been huge disappointments on the court, especially in 2010

I think Golden State has to be pretty upset with what Andris Biedrins has done this year

Previously mentioned Richard Jefferson in San Antonio

People in Indiana can't be happy with Mike Dunleavy's play since returning from injury, as he paid like a major starter and contributing like a bit role player

Lastly, Toronto can't be happy with the step back of Jose Calderon as he looked ready to take a step forward like Rondo did and become a preeminent PG in this league and now he's coming off the bench backing up Jarrett Jack

  Funny. I completely ignored this thread because I was expecting to see youtube of flopping, mainly by euros.

D.J. Augustin has had a rough 2nd year.
