Message: [QUOTE="MikeSU02, post: 1775661, member: 60"] It will get better once the D-League is more competitive, which is on the NBA's agenda, but it won't happen overnight. When it does, the top kids in each class won't have to bother with a pit stop in college. Until then, just have to deal with the fact that there will be high turnover. What could help would be to improve the officiating and adjust the rules slightly. To your question, I think kids are better in some aspects of the game, but they are DEFINITELY bigger, faster and stronger. I do think the AAU circuit makes it very hard to get a cohesive team of players to buy in (outside of the superstar coaches) when guys are cycling in and out and have been playing a style of basketball that doesn't necessarily translate well to the college game. Just my 0.02. [/QUOTE]
