Tell me why my idea is stupid-NBA should get rid of the draft and have to recruit incoming rookies

Young teams don't win. Correct. Young talent among veterans develop faster. Therefore, if you're already good, you'll always be able to replenish your talent pool. A team, like say, the Spurs, would never have to rebuild, because they'd have their pick of the litter.


It's like saying, would you rather have a snake draft or an auction draft

Even a team like The Spurs... There are other factors... They couldn't afford the top prospects due to cap space, those top prospect may not feel comfortable being a role player to start their career, or player simply don't want to play for the Spurs. Even then, what are the chances that the Spurs don't collapse? Just because a team is good scouting, but it doesn't it mean the talent is there in draft pool every year. Good argument, tho.

I remember a kid got drafted straight outta IMG, but the reason why he was even there was because his grades were terrible (Ricky Sanchez was his name)

I hear you but it's not like a lot of these kids are getting world class educations in the situations they are in currently.
We all know the jokes about Derrick Rose ,
Moses Malone wasn't a scholar by any stretch of the imagination ,Brandon Jennings couldn't get an ACT score to qualify not to mention the COUNTLESS football players who can't even get accepted to college on a scholarship and have to go JUCO

The educational standpoint isn't really that big of an issue.

Not a bad idea, then fans would really crucify their owners, if they didn't get talent, but it would make for interesting tv and process
