I definitely think development is an issue. Very few teams seem to develop players beyond the very basics.
NBA rosters allow for the least number of players. NBA rotations has the least number of players. NBA teams more than any other professional team sport, rely on a small number of players in that rotation to carry the bulk of the load. At any given time the NBA allows the least number of player to play at the same time.egelband wrote:Random question. But why are second rounders so valueless in the nba?

Handle needs a little more work.. jumper some refining. But he's everything Knicks fans have always wanted. Whatever team he goes to will be fasttracked for the playoffs and contention IF that team has a few good auxiliary pieces for a PG.. like Toppin Robinson and Barrett. You know who I'm talking about.
