Message: [QUOTE="SBU72, post: 1768947, member: 741"] Today on a sports talk show on Rochester radio, the host was trying to make a point how good teams find good players in the draft no matter where they draft. As "proof" he pointed to this years MVP voting showing how the top 10 vote getters were drafted at many different spots. It came out that about only 2 of the 10 were top 3 picks and many were past the 10th spot. He gave each vote getters year of draft, spot in the draft and the # of years of college. What caught my ear was that only 2 players left before 2 years of college. (Labron out of hs and Durrant after freshman year) The rest stayed at least 2 years and a couple 3 and even 1 had 4 (I think) The point here is that it is not necessary to get there real early to succeed.
