Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 1015039, member: 874"] Ice skating is not a team game. Neither is golf. You can't compare them to basketball. The super stud can go to court, but a precedent has already been set when guys tried to sue the NFL and lost. I don't know why it is so hard to understand that an employer has the right to establish entry level criteria as long as it isn't religiously or ethnically biased. Just like many careers require a certain degree, license, and/or experience through internships, the NBA can make a requirement for a certain level of post high school experience via overseas competition or college. The NBA doesn't owe it to anyone to give them a payday when THEY want it. And before anyone suggests that the NBA is preventing theses kids from getting a job, they're not. They can go work at any number of places, McDonald's and Walmart are almost always hiring. [/QUOTE]
