Why the NBA age limit should be 20

Steve Kerr on the problems with the age limit in the NBA - Grantland

Fantastic piece by Steve Kerr. I agree with every point he made.

He's right. He also didn't even mention how many 19 year-olds go undrafted and lose their eligibility. 18, 19 - they're still kids. I actually think he made a good enough argument to push the age to 21, which I believe the NFL requires.

I agree with this simply because I love College Basketball, either stay in college for 2 years or play overseas...

Amen.

LOL Didn't Josh Childress quit the NBA to play overseas?

Yes, he did. And when he returned, the Suns gave him a ridiculously stupid contract.
