Is Mario the worst player in NBA?

[Serbian]

Im a big NBA fan that watches probably 5 games per week constantly. I have not seen a worse player than Mario in a long long time.
Who is worse? Mario is a bonafide scrub of the highest order. Congratulations making millions of dollars though.

some in the forum think McCollum is the worst player in the NBA.

I wasn't expecting much from him, but I thought he'd be better than he has been. I bought in to the sales pitch on his potential, because he was so productive in his last few games last season, while being used as a primary ball handler. I thought he'd take ET's place in the second unit, but with three point range. Wrong.

At least you’re quick to make the correction. I wish Blazer management could pivot that quickly.

He most be worst shooter ever lol

 

[AldoTrapani]

He’s going to be really good overseas. This is definitely his last year in the league

 

[TBpup]

Is he even the worst player on his own team?

yes

but nice try, Terry

 

[Scalma]

yes

Swanigan is easily the worst.

Swanigan is easily the worst.

I have to agree. Mario is incredibly frustrating to watch because he is athletic, has size and he can definitely handle the rock but he is lost on defense, can't shoot with any consistency, doesn't finish at the hole and is not a good passer. Swanigan isn't frustrating because he has almost no skills, he's just not good. I'm not saying that Mario is a good ball player at all because his flaws are fatal to his game but he does have some things that he is very good at, making him not even close to the worst player in the league.

Swanigan gets my vote as well. The guy has butter fingers.

From his draft position maybe, though Kwame and Anthony Bennett might have something to say about that idk

 

[Wade Garrett]

YES!
What does mario do well, and how would anybody know?
He's fulfilled Cheif's role as cringing when he's got the ball...so, I guess he's good at that.

Swanigan is useless. He’s not even good at the one thing he’s supposed to be good at; rebounding. His contested rebound percentage is below 40%, which is awful for a big. Even Skals percentage is higher and he isn’t a particularly good rebounder himself. He’s just not an nba player. No nba skill, no nba caliber athleticism. I’d be surprised if he was in the league next year. Hezonja isn’t much better but he’s at least flashed.

Thats a true statement.

Somehow I think Croatian wouldn't say this.

Last night Mark Jackson said something like "I'll take Caleb Swanigan anytime..."
I can't imagine him or anyone, including Mario's mother saying that about him.

I wish Mark Jackson was the GM of a team that fool.

Uh, no.

We should have traded both of them to the Red Cross when we had the chance. We could have scored on bandage supplies for our injured good players. .
