re: Naz Reid should have stayed one more year

It will interesting to see what happens. I, and many others, have been outspoken in our belief that Naz was not NBA ready and would not be drafted anywhere in the first round.
Many on this board criticized us for not only being wrong, but for not knowing anything about basketball. They stated emphatically that Naz would not only be a first-rounder, but would be an almost certain lottery pick.
I guess we'll see who had a better bead on reality. If I was wrong I'll take my medicine.

However, most just said he was always going to be a one and done, and that was true. Saying that doesn't = "he should go".

There is no certainty that his career earnings would be greater if he stayed. The risk of injury, fact that he was not going to get his degree(not going to be a 4 year player), and being able to improve much faster playing professionally likely played large parts in his decision. I don't know what the correct answer is for him. I think too many posters believe they know better than the kids, their families, coaches , and advisors. But , this is the rant !

Not wrong. The only way he gets into the first round is if he really showed out at the NBA draft combine. Outside of that he is a second rounder. He has a lot of upside, he has a lot he can improve on, so yea, he will be a steal in the 2nd half.

Oh you’re def not wrong. From jump street he wasn’t sniffing the lottery. First round talent but needed another year.
