Yeah, everyone knows AAU is a problem. The solution? Not sure there is one. Even if USAB took over, those handlers would just switch over to be USAB coaches to sell the kids out.

As for post guys now, the rule changes have changed the game more than anything. Guys like Ewing, McHale, etc would be useless players. There's no defense in the NBA anymore. It's just guards and athletic forwards running into the lane, throwing up prayers and getting fouled.

As for fundamentals, I agree that CBB is so damn terrible now. I'd like to see them put in the baseball draft format. Kids can be drafted out of high school, but if they aren't, then they go to college for three years. That would actually attract better college coaches and make for a better brand of basketball. Rather than having a roster of one and dines that no one will follow into the NBA.

Ewing is one of, if not the best, shooting center ever. Coming in today's game, dude would be shooting threes too.

ETA: Yao is right up there with him.
