Loaded Chicken Sandwich Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I assume it's solely for feedback. If the NBA is willing to give him feedback and he comes back to school, it makes sense. Does it? Really this is just a massive waste of time for so many people. Because every one of these kids will be told they aren’t ready and to work on some things that their coach should already be telling them. If you’re an underclassmen and you are on literally zero radars for the NBA, don’t waste anyone else’s time. How many players come back way better? Just look at the IU players that went and did it. Green, Durham and Smith. Did it help them any? Did they drastically improve anywhere? Nope. All still struggled with the main problem from the season before. Consistency.

TheWatShot Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I've started to wonder if part of the reason we're seeing more players declare for the draft and "test the waters" is because they aren't the best students and don't think their college degrees will really get them anywhere, so they're hoping against all hope they can extend their basketball careers beyond college as long as it leads to income.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Your takes on this are exceptionally ridiculous. If it was that big of a waste of time, no one would have agreed to the rule. It’s professional development learning from the best in the world AT WORST. Who wouldn’t do that if given the opportunity? Are you saying that if you had the opportunity to get feedback from Gordon Ramsay - even though you may never work in a 5-star kitchen - you wouldn’t do it?
