[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 412323, member: 274"] Another question worth asking - do G-League coaches and training actually prepare someone better for the NBA than by going thru the top tier in the NCAA? If you look at this [URL='http://gleague.nba.com/coaches/']list of G-League coaches[/URL], you have dudes who made the jump straight from being a HS coach, and one who was an intern for the G-League team 5 years ago. Honestly, I wonder if sitting out (i.e., not going to college nor G-League) is the best path to the NBA for those who would otherwise be a lottery pick in a "straight to the NBA model". Just train on your own time and still get an agent advance, shoe deal, endorsements, whatever to bridge the gap. And you won't get exposed. Same reason NFL QBs choose not to throw or participate at the combine. [/QUOTE]
