NBA Draft:doesn't mean the same

20 years back when the New York Knicks Magically Won the Ping Pong Ball that Landed them Patrick Ewing(alot of folks still say a Fix was in)the NBA had something special on National TV with seeing who would end up with the Top Draft Pick.fast forward 20 years Later&while the NBA has just passed there very Dumb Age limit to 19 years to Limit straight out of High School Kids from joining in right away,you can tell that the Uncertainity of who is coming is larger than ever. the NBA Draft of Recent Years has had more High School Kids&Foreign Players.unlike back in the 50's-Early 90's you would get to watch a Kid go to College for a couple of years&then enter the Draft&you had a Idea of where they might be. but those days are long gone&I feel that they were never truly there,because the NBA Game&The College game are Worlds Apart.you can Never fully prepare upon entering the NBA.I've seen High School Kids come in &Get the NBA Game.I've Seen Cats go to College for 4 Years&Stink up the NBA.of course there have been High School Busts as well.but the Point is:the Draft doesn't mean the same&Probably never really did because you just don't know how anybody is gonna pan out once they Enter the Pros.
