I don't like the age limit. they had discussed a rule where only high schoolers drafted in the lottery would be eligible to play in the NBA. I think that would have worked.

i love the age limit... it will help both the college and the pro game

the age limit will also help the elite college programs... so if you root for one of 'em, it's all good

So you can get one year out of a guy instead of none? Whoopee.
The age limit sucks.

college hoops is fine and pro hoops will be fine once they make better use of the NBDL.

Age limit is retarded. If college basketball is obsolete, so be it.

And I bet coaches love replacing star players every year instead of every 3.

this is good news for the Knicks. they raised the cap, so maybe they'll have room to sign Lebron in 2 years.

yup, that happens ALL the time.........


Marvin Williams was the missing piece of the puzzle that fit right in and helped lead Carolina to last year's title... so yeah, it's obvious one year can have a HUGE impact... it may not happen ALL the time as you say, but it's happened now twice in the past few seasons.... not a bad track record

And how many times in the last 25? And who's to say that UNC wouldn't have been right there without Williams anyway?

that doesn't really say a lot. i actually agree about the one year thing though, and mostly because not everyone is marvin williams.
