I know there are playes like Lebron, Melo, and John Wall who could go straight out of high school, but those are few and far between. I really think the additional year will help more players become better prepared for the NBA, which will increase the talent in the NBA and let them have better and longer careers. If I were an owner and about to invest millions of dollars in them, I'd welcome the chance for them to get another year to mature if nothing else. I know David Stern has said he'd like to get it to 21 (3 and done) but I'm not sure I see it going that far. Two and done is the more likely of the scenario. From what I had heard reported on ESPN and things though, it's definately going to increase from 19 where it's at right now.
This is why I am loving Jared Sullinger here in Columbus. He could have easily jumped ship and entered the draft, but came back to the Buckeyes. The extra year is really going to develop him. Especially now that the NBA season is in such peril.
As for the NBA, the owners won't share the revenue because they know that they have the players on the ropes. Players are just now starting to miss game checks. A lot of the lower paid guys are going to start folding, then onto the middle ground guys. Sure the Kobe's and Lebron's can hold out for a while, but the 8s or 9s on the bench are in trouble.
On a side note, the U.S attourney general gave a search warrant for Syracuse University assistant coach Bernie Fine's house.
The Syracuse police executed the warrant about two hours ago.
The way they were searching, it looks like they think he's hiding some evidence outside his home.
The NCAA (Not Caring About the welfare of student Athletes) is a crock of B.S. and IMO people should stop watching college sports until there is a fundamental change in how the organization treats student athletes.
I am glad that there will be a season but I just hope the new agreement was worth it. I would rather have lost the season and gained real change in the parity situation than have them go back too early and watch the Lakers, Miami, Boston, and Dallas take turns in the finals every year.
It will be interesting in the coming days to see what this agreement looks like, and to see who really won. I hope the fans did.
Your Christmas wish has come true.
IMHO; I think greed finally overcame greed and they realized how much money they were losing.
They= both sides.
I guess the fans win,, well kinda.

It's currently being reported that they did raise the age limit to 20 so it's not one and done but two and through. I think that's reason for fans to be happy in and of itself.
It's like Michael Jordan going to the YMCA to play basketball.

Well, we'll see. I hope you're right.
If you let them kill your dreams, it'll haunt you.
