Believe it or not, D Miles had one of the best careers of those drafted in the year 2000. Miles was selected 3rd overall by the Clippers and put up decent numbers as a rookie coming straight out of high school. As a wirey, athletic forward Miles showed glimpses of greatness but was ultimately held back by injuries as well as some off-court issues. After 8 seasons in the league, his average stats were rather unexciting: 10.1 pts, 4.9 rbs, .471 FG%. Going back to the 2000 Draft, here are picks 1-14: 1-Kenyon Martin, 2-Stromile Swift, 3-Darius Miles, 4-Marcus Fizer, 5-Mike Miller, 6-DerMarr Johnson, 7-Chris Mihm, 8-Jamal Crawford, 9-Joel Przybilia, 10-Keyon Dooling, 11-Jerome Moiso, 12-Etan Thomas, 13-Courtney Alexander, 14-Matteen Cleaves…. YIKES! Not the beastliest group of ballplayers…. Shout out to Ramon De Los Santos (SLAM Photo Editor) for sharing the video.

The OTS section should be for classic guys. Darius is classic only that he represents the bad part of the League, guys who got too much too soon. Guys who considered themselves unstoppable after averaging 9ppg. I mean, Darius best season wasn’t even Penny’s best week. More Kevin McHale or The Microwave, more Isaiah. I wanna see Jeff Malone 3 pointer over some of these miojo eating jumping woofers.
Great video, as always.
to the others: Glad you enjoyed
Does anyone have any idea which possible teams could use a former MVP.
