Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 1358255, member: 1969"] The NBA wants 2 and done which would help the problem. They don't want one and done -but it was better than the older alternative The players association however uses it as a major bargaining chip (even if they have little interest in it themselves). But really what the NBA needs to do is... The NBA needs to set up a real minor league system... take some risk, market it a little better, be willing to subsidize some of the costs. Increase the compensation to its players, so that players are developing against the best minor pro "professionals" in the world in America, rather than whatever the hell they are playing in the NBDL. Make playing minor league NBA ball a real option that competes against college. Right now the NBDL is so bad -- not even in ball -- but in living conditions, travel, facilities, and compensation, that it is less attractive then playing at a big name school even if you hate academics.
