Becuase the nba gets to free ride on tax payer dime and these kids wants all the benefits of being a pro with none of the risks when they’re in reality amateurs

so what

It’s just not ideal roster construction

But they knew this Imo

That’s why they made russell waive his cba provided ntc

They should’ve gotten in on Christ Paul or hield when they had those big non guaranteed contracts available

Then why bother

It’s a waste of time

developing their skills is a waste of time?

The G League is not exactly knocking it out of the park in that regard.

College hoops gets more eyeballs, better coaching and at this point more money

you just gotta bother to give a shit about school for 4 months

boo hoo

My comment was more about why bother after your comment


If you don’t care about free riders and people committing blatant fraud claiming they’re not amateurs already getting compensated via tax free scholarships and are 100% not employees of the school…


Then there’s no point of continuing the discourse


The nba has proven its a better place for players to develop over and over again for most players

The roster is fine IMO. They have one of the deepest rosters the Lakers have had in a long time.

Injuries and inconsistencies have killed them though!

The NBA has worked for many players. but there is only 15 spots a team and 30 teams. There is no audience for an NBA minor league. The loyalty, viewers, and money is all in college.

Are you new to basketball? Are you implying that every player shoots the same amount of free throws every game?.

No I’m not implying that, but a guy averages 6 a game all of a sudden has 3x that and the opposing coach is calling him out for foul baiting?

Since you’re such a basketball expert, make that make sense.
