Unless you were ready to play immediately , you did 3- 4 years in college.
Today owners don't have to draft teenagers to play, they should be able to send them to a D-LEAGUE affiliate. Most 19 yr olds can't even compete with pro players yet. That's why the D-League for many would make the NBA better, because only the hungry(DEDICATED) will survive and make it to the NBA. Now you will know as an owner what you are truly investing in.

I blame the league more than the players, though I question the drive to win in most superstars today. Pay without earning it makes a lazy player.
Famous line from Larry Bird : "The one thing that always bothered me when I played in the NBA was I really got irritated when they put a white guy on me," Bird said. "I still don't understand why. A white guy would come out (and) I would always ask him: 'What, do you have a problem with your coach? Did your coach do this to you?' And he'd go, 'No,' and I'd say, 'Come on, you got a white guy coming out here to guard me; you got no chance.' ... For some reason, that always bothered me when I was playing against a white guy. "As far as playing, I didn't care who guarded me -- red, yellow, black," Bird added. "I just didn't want a white guy guarding me. Because it's disrespect to my game."
