Any interest of taking a flyer on him at that prize? I haven’t seen enough of him and the Bulls to have an opinion.
None from me. He gets talked about around here at times because of his elite combo of physical attributes, but the reality is that he is a total bust and waste of a #4 pick. Everyone I've ever heard talk about him, from buddies who watch the Bulls closely to some of the better national NBA followers who actually watch and understand the sport (not talking heads, but the actual basketball junkies) has consistently marveled at how little he has progressed since being drafted, how utterly undeveloped his skill set is, and how much of a total disappoint he has been. I was shocked when Chicago gave him that latest contract, honestly, and would want no part of it.
Typing this with a straight face: I honestly think O-Max might be just as good, if not better, RIGHT NOW.
