[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 837771, member: 7261"] I get what you are saying that the term "bust" seems like a condemnation of the player as not living up to expectations due to things within his control. In the case of King, I think TT was getting defective merchandise from the start, not King's fault, TT's. We are probably splitting hairs here, but if a high draft pick doesn't provide the team much in the way of returns on the field, to me, he goes down as a lost investment. Define that as a "bust, loss, bad move, bad luck, etc", doesn't really matter what the circumstances were or the semantics you want to use to describe it, if the return isn't there, its a negative outcome for the team and the player. One thing I have noticed about King is his slight build. Not sure if that impacts his ability to stay healthy. I half expected to see him look more bulked up this year. I have no clue what his off season regiment is, but sure looks like he avoids the weight room. [/QUOTE]
