Who is on your team of #dumpsterjuice all stars?

[Kblaze8855]

By "dumpsterjuice" I dont mean literally bad players. More...people you instantly realized werent that good who people kept trying to believe in and make out to be somebody. Lets go on and exempt obvious hall of famers so you can keep Kobe, Lebron, and whatever other first ballot hall of famer out of this. I didnt like Karl Malone. He obviously wasnt #dumpsterjuice. Lets be real.

Just...guys you didnt **** with for lack of a better term. They may not literally be awful.....but they're awful anyway you know? The guys people and teams apparently find good...but all you see is:

For me?

One name stands out.

Larry Hughes.

I watched that guy heavily when he was on the Wizards. He got some love and had a few teams after him as a backup plan in free agency. Kinda like Tobias Harris is about to do. He wasnt anyones target...but he was everyones backup backup so you dont come out with nothing. Classic "Ok numbers but nothing he does matters" guy. Looks like a great defender off steals but hes not a stopper. I remember AI said he taught Hughes how to gamble for steals and everyone called him a bad defender when he did it but made Hughes all D. He wasnt hating really just laughing about it.

I knew in DC he wasnt that good. But the Cavs and a couple other stops would get him and act like they had something. I just couldnt understand.
They were satisfied like:

And im just laughing waiting for the trainwreck. And he never let me down. Guy shot like 33 and 35% in back to back playoffs with the Cavs. I remember him as the bricklayer was one of the first ISH gifs we used all the time. Then what happens?

He gets traded to the gotdamn Bulls. Probably served me right for clowning him so long. After a brief run of obviously being garbage he was traded for 2 more #dumpsterjuice all stars in Jerome James and tim Thomas(who did have potential but was straight garbage water by then).


Larry was a somewhat celebrated acquisition for 4 teams who would just lick him up

then wonder how their franchise got sick.

He might be the most You got these people fooooooled player in recent history. People didn’t accept he was a nobody till he was like 28 then he was out of the league by 30ish.


Who do you have to top him in your opinion?

Give me team #basura.

[AirTupac]

LeBron. Everyone told me he was amazing. Then he came on my team thinking he would raise us up and .... its been a dumpster juice of a season.

[Ben Simmons 25]

You know... I said to myself... in before the LeBron replies... but I was too late. Holy shit, the trolls and idiots... never change, ISH, never change... lol.

[MrFonzworth]

Rudy Gay instantly came to mind. I remember simpletons thought he was better than Andre Iguodala, triggered the hell out of me as a Sixers fan. Hell Iguodala was a better dunker too. Iggy did better with Jrue Holiday than Rudy Gay did with Conley, Tony Allen, Gasol and Randolph. "B-but Iggy cant shoot!" Shut the **** up Gay is a bum. Gets hurt every year while Iggy was lead the league in minutes.

BTW, without giving it much thought, the name in Orlando Magic history that jumps most to mind is Steve Francis. **** that guy. Seriously.

And thats why I made it clear we arent talking about just most overrated players. Then you have guys naming all time greats they just feel should be on tier ____ instead of ____ . #dumpsterjuice should be enough exempt anyone who is in or going to the hall of fame. But I gave ISH too much credit.

Almost missed your white text.

[Loco 50]

Richard Jefferson - Always hated two guards without reliable jumpers. Owes a hefty percentage of his contract money to Kidd.

Kenyon Martin - Excelled at little. Fake tough guy. Ditto percentage due to Kidd.

Kevin Martin - O.G. empty stats.

Marcus Camby - Chased blocks at the cost of solid D and rebounding position. Undeserved defensive player of the year award.

[Kblaze8855]

You know I actually thought about both RJ and Kenyon Martin but figured I wouldnt be able to explain it well if challenged. Jefferson more than Kmart. Kmart played some nice man to man D. I always respect that. And I **** with his approach personality wise. Kenyon wasnt #dumpsterjuice he just wasnt....quite as good as some felt like. But he was better than his numbers at times too. Hes hard to rank.

I wont list him with the Dirty brown...water trash. I respected Kenyon most of his career.

Could have told you from jump that your thread wasn't going to be taken in the spirit you intended lol.

[AirTupac]

Dont get mad because you dont like the answer. LBJ is the definition of what you asked for. A player that was touted as "GOAT" but he is far less than that. In fact he can be a downright detriment. Dumpster juice.

[chains5000]

+1 for Kenyon Martin

He's #1.

Highly touted and won a couple dunk contests or whatever so people gave him all kinds of love.

Not deserved. Shot like 25% from three taking 3.5 per game one year. Just garbage.

Jrue Holiday?? Really?

[AirTupac]

Jrue Holiday?? Really?


Yeah thats disrespectful. Dude is so underrated and good. GREAT defender. No one ever talks about him.

[kennethgriffen]

why is OP stealing my material

...

[Marchesk]

Jrue Holiday?? Really?

He's not very efficient and has Anthony Davis yet the Pelicans struggle. People are listing DeMar DeRozan. Not saying he wouldn't be a good fit with Lebron.

[red1]

melo. just seems like such a huge waste of talent his career should have gone a lot better.

wiggins. pure bust and low IQ player.

draymond to a degree. he's a winner but a lot of his game is just ugly/scrubby.

[zeerghit]

Jrue actually playing defence and good defence..

[BallsOut]

Definitely LeBron. These next three years can't go by any faster. Can't wait for the Lakers to get rid of this fraud.

[Milbuck]

He's not very efficient and has Anthony Davis yet the Pelicans struggle.
It's not his fault at all that the Pelicans struggle. The Pelicans are actually a good team when he's on the court, the problem is they're gutter trash when he's on the bench. +4.4 points per 100 on court, -11.2 when he's on the bench. There's only so much you can do when your team can't function without you.

His scoring efficiency could be better but he's still an awesome player. And he straight up destroyed Portland in the playoffs last year.

AD is a trash first option. It's not Jrue's fault.

[NBAGOAT]

jerry stackhouse. I think even derozan is good enough(not this year) to not be a dumpsterjuice all star. Antawn Jamison is another

Edit: oh and kevin duckworth. Basically Chris Kaman, maybe worse

[tontoz]

Josh Smith was a very effective player...... when he wasn't shooting. Unfortunately he just loved to shoot.

Forgot about Josh Smith, why did he take so many jumpers?

AD is such a special talent. There's almost nothing he isn't in the very least really good at.

I've always likened his career to KG's in Minny. He made the playoffs when he has a decent cast but he never had enough around him to really make a splash.

Put him around some savvy vets and you've got a champion in the making.

Him and Lebron would be a deadly tandem.

[ShawkFactory]

Josh Smith was a very effective player...... when he wasn't shooting. Unfortunately he just loved to shoot.
Which is why I think he fits the thread perfectly. He wasn't bad at all. Obviously he was doing something right to have as long of a career as he did.

He was effective on defense (earlier in his career he was always among the league leaders in blocks), a good rebounder for his position, and he was a monster in transition.

I just hated him because he would shoot.

He was an undisciplined idiot at times. Was the epitome of a net negative while playing in Detroit. One of the worst players in the league actually.

But you're right... He had some good years in Atlanta and that shouldn't be discounted.

[eliteballer]

Wiggins is the definition of this, relative to his contract and talent.

Though he might not actually be that talented of a basketball player. He can jump, but he lacks bball IQ, coordination, feel for the game etc. and obviously passion.

[BigShotBob]

Harold Miner and Ben Gordon come to mind

[warriorfan]

Stephen Jackson

[Milbuck]

Derozan can be a good regular season player but I legit think he's been a net negative for a good chunk (if not the majority) of his playoff career. Absolute trash defensive player and is a non-spacer from 3 at a position where you need that the most. His scoring efficiency and playmaking also crater in high intensity playoff series.

Danny Green for example in his place on last year's Raptors makes them noticeably better on both ends in the playoffs and they probably take a game or two off Cleveland. Derozan was a massive negative in that series. Him making 4 all-star games and 2 all-NBA teams is f*cking hilarious to me.

[Charlie Sheen]

Patrick Mccaw was a hot name for a minute. Dubs fans I know still talk like he's something special because he got two rings and a summer league story.

All those tarheels that won the title. May, Marvin, Mccants, Felton.

When was the last time you had a talk with them? :lol

The one guy who wont let go, pretty often. He still using the McGod moniker reminiscing about the important role he played in the playoffs. :lol

[Kblaze8855]

Harold Miner and Ben Gordon come to mind


Ben would be a terrorist off the bench today. Peak Ben might be a 22ppg 6th man right now Lou Williams style.

Hed be taking 8-10 threes a game.

[Manny98]

Monta Ellis

[Kblaze8855]

Just thought of a guy....

Jeff Green.

Seems like every team that adds him has fans like "We just added Jeff Green" and it turns out it doesnt matter. Hes not a big name....I just feel like ive heard 3 too many fanbases act like adding jeff green would make a difference.

[Reggie43]

Brad Miller was a two time nba allstar...

[KobesFinger]

Roy Hibbert. No idea how he became a 2x all star

[Xiao Yao You]

Mark Eaton for sure. They sad thing is I thought he actually deserved it at the time as bad as he was. They took 3 centers at that time. And people say the position is weak now! :lol

[Kblaze8855]

It was a down year for centers in the west with old Kareem, Eaton and Duckworth going....but with Hakeem and Ewing also there....and the tail end of Moses.....plus Drob coming in that summer? Its hard to call it weak compared to now. Hakeem and Ewing alone were enough to not say that even with Drob finishing up with the navy. Im not sure who they would be sending if they still made you pick an all star center. They just went with frontcourt/backcourt to avoid sending any of them it appears.

[MrFonzworth]

Anyone remember when Tim Thomas was constantly supposed to have a break out year?

He did have a couple good years alongside Steve Nash with Mike D’Antoni coaching. But lots of people looked really good in that system.

I dont know who had the most "About to breakout...." seasons Tim Thomas or Darius Miles.

Exum going on his 6th

[Kblaze8855]

I legit forgot he existed till that post. Ive been waiting for the new Penny for 20 years. Livingston and Exum both let me down.
