But look at the problem with ur analysis. You're looking at it from the perspective of the game itself. Half of these guys actually WANT to go to school.. and some of them end up going... but sometimes, the main reason most of the actually go directly to the NBA, is cause with a high school career like the one they've just had, they know the scouts would be out to get them... and there's no telling what could happen to them in the NCAA

Their worth might actually decrease going or coming out of college... so if you want to take the chance and PLAY the game at a high level, going out straight to the draft, knowing that a team might draft you always sounds like the logical thing to do.

Sometimes it isn't the best, but when you look at their reasons, it's kinda hard to put a mark agains them. some of them are just trying to get enough money to take care of their single mothers.. or brothers, sisters and large extended family.

The NBA gives them the chance to be able to make use of what they have and what they can do, to make ends meet and have the things they weren't able to have growing up.

It might seem like a vague way to look at things, but when you have a player like LeBron James, and Tracy Mcgrady, you can't actually say they're TOTALLY wrong for wanting to be pros :biggrin:

My own problem is the stupid 20 year old age limit thing. Why the hell would your president have the right to send you to war and command you to kill another man at 18, and then sayy someone of 19 years can't go into the NBA to make a living. That's just absurd.
