Re: Thread
"One NBA team contacted by Yahoo! Sports believed that Morris wasn't eligible to sign until July 1, and another Eastern Conference general manager had no idea at all that he was a free agent. "
Don't GMs make like half a million dollars a year? And aren't they directly responsible for staffing a total of like 25 people? Jesus I'd fire whichever dude didn't know Morris was a FA.
Also, if he signs I guarantee the rules will get changed. Not because of people intentionally gaming the system by throwing their personal workouts, but because it will become EV for every player to declare for the draft as soon as they can, not sign an agent, and either get drafted (yay mobnies!) or go undrafted and possibly get a big payday in a year or two if they improve.
I don't think people realize just how much the draft screws young players, because we haven't had a Scott Boras type trying to find loopholes.
