Message: [QUOTE="Waltdods, post: 2577314, member: 2932"] This isn’t terribly relevant to anything but your numbers on the g league are wrong, so your math here also actually points in the opposite direction you think. Last year there were 50 guys called up from the g league, not 30. ([URL="http://gleague.nba.com/callups/"]2017-18 GATORADE Call-Ups - NBA G League[/URL]). And this doesn’t count the (many) guys who had an nba contract before being called up. So the denominator for the g league is probably meaningfully smaller than the 300 you estimate, but even going with that, the comparison of odds you are doing here (which in truth I’m not sure makes much sense), would show g league as better odds: 50/300 g league guys (or 1 in 6) make the nba while 20/140 early entrants (1 in 7) make it.
