NBA & NCAA one-and-done rule

I apolgize for using wikipedia. Here is the link to the actual statement.http://www.reflector-online.com...The opponent brings up a few successful players who skipped playing college ball and went straight to pro but truthfully there is only a select few who were able to be successful in that transition, have you ever heard of Eddy Curry, Kwame Brown, Gerald Green, or Sebastian Telfair? They are only four of the numerous who fail at the transition from highschool to pro basketball. This rule was put into effect to make sure the playing quality stays high for those who watch NBA, no one wants to watch a poor quality game.Out of the 4 players you listed, only one of them were a true bust, and that is Kwame Brown. Gerald Green was the winner of the 2007 Slam Dunk contest, and is currently having one of his best seasons in Phoenix. Eddy Curry may not be playing now, but he averaged 19.5 points in the 2006-2007 season. Sebastian Telfair may not have had good careers like the other two, but he is nowhere near what I would call a bust.Here list of high school draftees from the modern eraI sorted the players into 3 catergoriesAll-Star calibur players 1 Kevin Garnett, Farragut Career Academy, Chicago, Illinois (1995) 2 Jermaine O'Neal, Eau Claire High School, Columbia, South Carolina (1996) 3 Tracy McGrady, Mt.

Ozen High School, Beaumont, Texas (2003) 10 Shaun Livingston, Peoria Central High School, Peoria, Illinois (2004) 11 Sebastian Telfair, Abraham Lincoln High School (New York), Brooklyn, New 12 Al Jefferson, Prentiss High School, Prentiss, Mississippi (2004) 13 Josh Smith, Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson, Virginia (2004) 14 J.R. Smith, Saint Benedict's Preparatory School, Newark, New Jersey (2004) 15 Dorell Wright, Leuzinger High School, Lawndale, California (2004) 16 Andrew Bynum, St. Joseph High School, Metuchen, New Jersey (2005) 17 Gerald Green, Gulf Shores Academy, Houston, Texas (2006) 18 C.J. Miles, Skyline High School, Dallas, Texas (2005) 19 Monta Ellis, Lanier High School, Jackson, Mississippi (2005) 20 Louis Williams, South Gwinnett High School, Snellville, Georgia (2005) 21 Andray Blatche, South Kent Preparatory School, South Kent, Connecticut (2005) 22 Amir Johnson, Westchester High School, Los Angeles, California (2006) Busts 1 Korleone Young, Hargrave Military Academy, Chatham, Virginia (1998) 2 Leon Smith, Martin Luther King High School, Chicago, Illinois (2001) 3 Kwame Brown, Glynn Academy, Brunswick, Georgia (2001) 4 DeSagana Diop, Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson, Virginia (2001 5 Travis Outlaw, Starkville High School, Starkville, Mississippi (2003) 6 Ndudi Ebi, Westbury Christian School, Houston, Texas (2003) 7 James Lang, Central Park Christian High School, Birmingham, Alabama (2006) 8 Robert Swift, Bakersfield High School, Bakersfield, California (2004) 9 Martell Webster, Seattle Preparatory School, Seattle, Washington (2005)Out of the 40 players who got drafted, only 9 players became busts. 22 players were decent to good players, and the 7 are argubably, are the best players the NBA has ever had. So this proves Pro's argument wrong. There also have been college busts also. Does that mean we should ban college players also? Another claim in my opponents argument is that in other sports you can become pro soonerNot once did I mention anything about other sports. Pro just made up a rebuttal for something that I never said. If something were to happen to the player, such as an injury, that does not allow the athlete to play then the scholar has a degree to fall back on.Again, this is a matter of choice, a player should be old enough to know the consequences. Its quite ridiculous that players should lose their liberties of entering something. http://listafterlist.com...http://www.basketball-reference.com...http://www.basketball-reference.com...
