Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 2517540, member: 297"] Why are those the choices that the NBA would put in front of kids? What if the NBA creates an academy for highschool kids and pays them to attend, meaning a player and their family willingly bypass their amateur status? People are making a lot of assumptions that the NBA is going to do what they think is best, and on this board that's biased to the interests of college basketball. I'm warning everybody now, the likelihood of this being better for college hoops, or solving the problems in college hoops, is low. The NBA isn't the entity that needs to give or change on this - if they do it is because the NBA benefits. There are a lot of things they'll look at, and my guess is they won't be minor tweaks. If the NBA is going to go full bore into player development they're going to see how the world's best do it. Spoiler alert - they're going to find models they like a lot more than the NCAA. [/QUOTE]
