He averaged 0.7 blocks and 4.5 rebounds. You must not have watched him play. A bust is someone who was a high draft pick and underperform. Averaged 6 and 5 rebounds for his career is a bust for a high lottery player lol

Kwame made $64 Million over his 11 season NBA career, averaging 6.6 per game, while being injured a lot and missing tons of games. That might be the most generous salary to production ratio in NBA history. Lucky guy.
The hate was real. Some Disney oriented story line to clown this man his whole career. They probably got bonuses every time they said something funny about him.
Jordan absolutely killed this guys career, the talent was there but he ended up like a kid that grew up in an abusive household that could never outgrow that to become a successful adult.
Jordan played with him just one season.How can you say he killed his career don't blame MJ he got 6 rings because he's a great player and a great teamate.
Nigga still softer than baby shit. All that god given talent put can’t put any damn effort on the court. I’m glad he has the reputation he has. Give any of his talent and I promise you we would’ve all BALLED

Yeah but Kwame came out of high school and that paid stooge SAS highlighted Kwame more than any other #1 pick that didn't live up to expectations in order to prevent High school players from coming to the NBA early and going to college to make Zaddy more money
real talk. i get discouraged when i see someone call a great defender a trash player. defense wins championships. Offense wins games, but you gotta have somebody that can make them have to change their offense up. That's why Kevin Durant is so underrated. He's lowkey one of the best Iso defenders in the entire league and that alone means that the opposing team can't just auto rely on their number 1 player at the end of games. Kwame was locking up a hall of famer in this game. That man deserved his way more respect and way more money than he got. If he was drafted today, he would be a max center with today's league and todays coaches.
@@r.deandre6163 he would’ve actually been great with y’all the pistons around that time would’ve actually built him well he’d at least be a 15ppg 12 rebound guy who could defend sad that he never got the physical nor mental help he needed Jordan fucked that mans career
Detroit wasn't the same then. Still had all the stars from the 2004 Championship, but Kwame didn't elevate them. Greg Oden actually had higher averages than Kwame, but his injuries kept him down.
To be fair one announcer almost sounded like he knew ball. He was kinda on brown said fans dont need to boo him he didnt deserve it and he asked the the same guy they been doin the show fa yrs ask he wasnt that bad was he as if he was scared to say brown was decent maybe not a 1 but n ok nba player like why ask just say what u really felt in that moment.

Emma Madison Jordan has no eye for talent and no foresight. Kwame is also stupid to go directly to the NBA. 1 year in college would have helped him alot to transition in the nba
@@datsapaddlin6449 understandable. But having college education with his mindset would have propelled him to a better life. Not that his life sucks now. He seems to have his head straight anyway. What I was saying is if Kwame stayed at least a year in college, he would have a better career in the NBA.
@@jauharilee7496 Opinion? Lol More like a fact, you clown. You’re just in denial of the bona fide bust Kwame Brown who averaged 6.6 points a game in his career 🤣
He played 12 seasons and averaged 9 and 9 so he's not bad just shouldn't have been taken 1st overall especially since he was out of high school. Jordan is a terrible GM
This man was almost 7 feet tall, teams need big men like him as a center. Thats why he stayed in the NBA that long. I do t think they should of made fun of him for all those years but he just did not perform well. He was lucky to have been in the NBA for that long. Just shows you how valuable being big in the NBA is. If he had better coaching and a good mentor he would have been a lot better.
@@barcenter yes he was just a high schooler but the problem everyone has been saying wasnt his potential, it was his basket ball IQ and his interaction with Micheal Jordan. He did however had the opportunity to prove everyone wrong but he couldnt.
Looking back at his career, he had fun playing and he showed a lot of hustle. Wasn’t a great player but his size and strength kept him in the league for a nice amount of years.
Leave Kwame alone, he was an “NBA” player for a reason. He may have not been the player most wanted to be, but his dream came true by making it to the NBA. Also he got payed “very” well.
Phil Jackson once said that Brown took on Bosh and a lot of top players in the nba 1 on 1 in some kind of summer practice and he would win every time over them.
Guess it's to bad you don't play 1 on 1 in the league. Also do you trust Phil Jacksons ability to judge talent? Yes he's a great coach and has the ability to get guys to work together. But that's where I stop listening to him.
@@landonbowling6677 Phil's ability to judge talent has nothing to do with 1vs1. He didn't say Kwame was a God, he said he was beating top guys in 1 on 1 games, which isn't improbable, considering similar stories about other players (see: Micheal Beasley).
The bad luck of Kwame Brown was to be selected #1 at the NBA draft.Then people started expecting him to live up on that rank.Had him been selected let us say in the second round and been let alone to improve his game in his pace he could have become a good center like Jermaine O'Neal .
Man watching these old highlights of Kwame I use to have high hope for him coming straight out of high school. The same way the Lakers and yes Kobe did them young players (Clarkson, Randle, Ingram, and Russell) the same way I felt about how Jordan did him. Neither of them took these young players under their wing and really push them, mentor them, especially Jordan..Kobe's last year I use to say "Kobe dude your game isn't there, teach them young players how to play, and just take a back seat, but I know this is Kobe we're talking about. Then comes Lebron..(keep in mind a few of them needed a male guidance)
He made a lot of mistakes in his career but he was an overall decent center tbh. The reason kwame never exceeded expectations in the league was bc he never went to college and was straight out of high school and wasn’t coached or managed well. A lot of it not his fault
I feel bad for Kwame because I read about his past, however, if you're going to play for the Lakers, you better be improving every year. He obviously didn't work hard because he never developed a post game. His freethrow shooting became worse. Now he wants to comeback? Best luck to him but I don't see him being able to comeback at age 35.
How come Kwame gets the bust label, and they call Michael Olowikandi the candy man? Olowikandi was a1st overall pick and he was waaaaaay worse than Kwame Brown...
Because the narrative. Stephen A smith made a comedy meme out of the poor guy and had all of america brain washed to think Kwame was the worst player of all time. Which is bullshit.
@@mattwalusimbi9577 I mean that's cold laughing at someone who passed but many basketball players actually talked about him. Tmac, Kobe, MJ, I think Shaq may have said something before Probably some other players too who just didn't really care
always tell people, he was a really good defender. problem is, people only care about offense. that's why idiots were saying curry was better than LeBron for 1 season.
For that announcer AL to think that Rasheed made that 3 off the backboard on purpose... smh and he's explaining basketball to millions of people. Hahaha🤣😅
If you listen to this man's story and realize that he was a teenager when he went to the NBA you'll realize that everyone expected things from him when they had no idea of who he was, where he was mentally, and what he needed. His back story is sad, tough but inspiring. He went through a lot to get to where he was and the the NBA, Jordan and others ruined him. To expect a teenager, no matter how good he is/was, to expect a teenager to become an adult, be professional, be mature in a blink of an eye is beyond stupid and was a great disservice to Kwame. Stephen A comes to mind, he's a piece of garbage.
Wasnt kobe and kg teenagers when they came into the league??? And im sure everyone gave them crap sometimes pressure makes diamonds sometimes pressure makes dust thats just facts
@@dafuknapple2471 guess it's all or nothing, right? The idea of molding/building/nurturing talent is not a thing? You either have it or not? Do or die?
@@dafuknapple2471 Also, you may want to look at Kobe's background... solid family, rich upbringing, lots of support... Now go see how much support Bynam had and then you may be able to see how not all 18 year old kids are not the same.
he's really not that bad, it's just like he's more of a project when he came to the league and MJ and his coach really affected his confidence and stunted his growth as a player, i mean u cant last 12 yrs in the NBA if u were a bust, just look at bennett

@@kg141414141 i know was just making jokes
I feel bad for Kwame because I read about his past, however, if you're going to play for the Lakers, you better be improving every year. He obviously didn't work hard because he never developed a post game. His freethrow shooting became worse. Now he wants to comeback? Best luck to him but I don't see him being able to comeback at age 35.
Are you serious , is he rally talking about returning ?.
@Emma Madison Ok , I really wish that Kwame would have wound up in NY as a result of that !!.
Went from most hated to a sport's hero an legend
How come Kwame gets the bust label, and they call Michael Olowikandi the candy man? Olowikandi was a1st overall pick and he was waaaaaay worse than Kwame Brown...
Because the narrative. Stephen A smith made a comedy meme out of the poor guy and had all of america brain washed to think Kwame was the worst player of all time. Which is bullshit.
Becuz Kwame played with MJ and Kobe
Kwame went from a low cut in the beginning to braids by the end😂🤣😂
allen inverson on the pistons lol
Totally forgot he played for detroit
It doesn't seem right.
Notice how only analysts said bad things about him, I have yet to hear a teammate degrade this man
Kobe did lol
@@FreshPrincex4 alive😌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mattwalusimbi9577 I mean that's cold laughing at someone who passed but many basketball players actually talked about him.
Tmac, Kobe, MJ, I think Shaq may have said something before
Probably some other players too who just didn't really care
Stephen Jackson and Gilbert Arenas
always tell people, he was a really good defender. problem is, people only care about offense. that's why idiots were saying curry was better than LeBron for 1 season.
uhmm...Curry is better than LeBum...look at how crappy LeBrick is on the Lakers...
For that announcer AL to think that Rasheed made that 3 off the backboard on purpose... smh and he's explaining basketball to millions of people. Hahaha🤣😅
Damn did not know he could do this shit
Truth is, no NBA player is trash.
Not all can make it in the NBA but that’s fine.
Damn this dude must've played for every team in the NBA 😂
We have to thank him :) without him we wouldn’t have gotten those 2 Kobe championships :)
Yeah that pau gasol trade was crazyyyy
he doesn't miss many dunks LUL
Wind Cloud LeBron misses too many dunks too even he's alone LOL
Great One A lot of people did...
#MOMMAS COOKING BROUGHT ME HERE
Kwame had the smallest hands and small feet for his height in NBA history..he could not palm a NBA ball..always dunk wit two hands
Im 6'9 but only wear a 11 1\2.
Watch the clip of Lamar Odom lob to him.
Kwame has played with legendary players!
If you listen to this man's story and realize that he was a teenager when he went to the NBA you'll realize that everyone expected things from him when they had no idea of who he was, where he was mentally, and what he needed.
His back story is sad, tough but inspiring. He went through a lot to get to where he was and the the NBA, Jordan and others ruined him. To expect a teenager, no matter how good he is/was, to expect a teenager to become an adult, be professional, be mature in a blink of an eye is beyond stupid and was a great disservice to Kwame.
Stephen A comes to mind, he's a piece of garbage.
Wasnt kobe and kg teenagers when they came into the league??? And im sure everyone gave them crap sometimes pressure makes diamonds sometimes pressure makes dust thats just facts
@@dafuknapple2471 guess it's all or nothing, right? The idea of molding/building/nurturing talent is not a thing? You either have it or not? Do or die?
@@dafuknapple2471 Also, you may want to look at Kobe's background... solid family, rich upbringing, lots of support... Now go see how much support Bynam had and then you may be able to see how not all 18 year old kids are not the same.
@@paullee1521 bynam???? .....wtf you talkin about 😂😂😂😂😂
@@paullee1521 yeah you either have that mentality or you dont
3:47 A rare moment in Kwame's career.. 2/2 free throws. Even if the first one banked off the glass and the 2nd one got the friendly roll in.
70 percent ft shooting then that isnt rare. Boo!..🗣
@@Goodsense215 go back to the hood
All Jokes aside .. Kwame could have been something .. I'm looking at these highlights and I am happy for Him ..
Kwame Brown a legit threat this season. MVP.
This editing had me thinking he grew braids out of nowhere
Not a bad player very solid defensively
Kinda rings true what he says…when he was allowed to play he didn’t look that bad
he's really not that bad, it's just like he's more of a project when he came to the league and MJ and his coach really affected his confidence and stunted his growth as a player, i mean u cant last 12 yrs in the NBA if u were a bust, just look at bennett
Whoa that free throw by Kwame?!!!
So at 2:40 it is 74-62 Pistons up.
At 4:30 it's 86-61 Lakers up.
Wth?
Spaghetti Rules its two different games
Spaghetti Rules If pay attention one game he had a normal and a.i. was on the pistons next game he had braids not the same game
Man it was nice seeing Kobe for a sec!
