I don't know I mustn't have communicated what I meant well enough. As for saying whether players improve after attending college for 2-3 years, how many kids not drafted after 2-3 years in college would have been draft picks out of high school? Conversely, do you really think that a Wes Johnson, Mike Gbinije, MCW, Ennis, Malachi Richardson, Tyler Lydon etc would have been drafted after high school? Players improve and use college basketball as a showcase, it's a symbiotic relationship.

Let the kids who believe like you said, that 2-3 years of college doesn't mean you are going to be better in the NBA than if they left directly from high school, actually leave for the NBA. Since the NBA is a business, let's find out if they will subsidize developing all the early entrees out of high school. My guess is that like always the NBA will only subsidize a very select few for development. It's the NBA's problem then whether to put their money into developing these kids and leave colleges out of it including the players who have no desire to be student athletes. If there's no market for the majority of players talent out of high school why not find out and put the issue to rest. Then let there be like baseball, football a 3 year rule.
