As long as the Knicks benefited, I don't care

I have been following this for some time and while I don't know if the forum was sold at a good price or not, it appeared MSG was getting the shaft and this really was the best outcome. Not good to have two owners on a turf war over an arena issue.
He'd be a good teamate of Kyrie. Slippery slope anti-Vaxxers. Basically when we can't understand something in the old days it "Was gods will". Can't explain something. pray to it. Want the sun come up, pray. Look, it came up. Keep praying. With got science. Which btw god gave us? Faith based. Autism can't be explained, must be God? If not convienenct to yoru belief, then it must be "THEY". Thats Conspiracy. Thats where the Dumb Dumb's hang. Maybe Autism is an symptom high mortality rates a generation or two now. Maybe its just an off shoot that you conquer one thing, perhaps a lessor symptom develops. Autism sucks. Is it better than Polio? Death? I have no idea. Any testing on human subjects is messed up. Showtime ran a show called "THE KNICK"......about turn of the century hospital and how trying things out was how discovery was made. some pretty raw subjects actually. Progress was made from it. Nazi Germany did some horrific things to captives. Was there gains from it? I don't even want to go there. Did our govenment do things to minorities and solidiers? Yeah, and gains were also discovered. Was it worth it? I don't go there, its not right. You want to not vax your kids, thats your business but if its a public health issue then its a society thing. Some sects of orthodox Jews are anti vax also. African Americans have ever right to feel as they do. But there is a more logical path to acceptance.

With Jalen Green announcing he’s bypassing college and joining the NBA’s G League for the 2020-21 season, he’s attempting to forge a new path for elite prospects.
The five-star recruit who is ranked No. 2 in the 2020 high school class by Rivals.com has reached a substantial six-figure deal, sources said, to partner with the G League for a year before entering the 2021 NBA draft, where he’s a candidate to be the No. 1 overall pick.
The G League will create a “Select Team” in a designated city with a few roster spots for elite high school players who want to play professionally instead of going to college, sources said. The rest of the roster will be made up of veteran players.
Green, a 6-foot-6 shooting guard from Fresno, California, will serve as the face of this unique new pathway to the NBA. The G League is also offering Green a full scholarship if he wants to obtain his college degree.

Do they still have to enter the nba via the draft or does this route bypass it?

He will still need to enter next years draft.
Thanks!

Whose Gleague team do those guys play on? A new league owned team? Why not let teams draft them? Perhaps they are then forced to play a year in Gleague with a salary cap of $500k and full scholarship set aside. Given them a 5 year contract but the big money does not come until they are promoted to the NBA based on their draft position for the remaining 4 years. If you go to NCAA and year and get drafted you bypass this. They get regular 4 year contract scale based on their draft position. You talking just a few kids each year.

Wow. Select contracts started this past season but only paid $125k. Going to 500k is a huge change. It seems like this will definitely hurt the ncaa. I believe JVG talked about high school seniors going directly to the g league on a podcast last summer. His take was that it would hurt their draft stock and that the grown men/professionals would be too good, too strong and too motivated for these kids to have the type of success they would have in college. Having a ‘select’ team is an interesting new spin to this.

I was kind of thinking about that this mourning. Confidence is a huge factor in development. The G-league could become a humbling experience for 17-18 yr olds. This is also all a new process which I am sure a lot of kinks will need to be ironed out. Jalen Green could end up being a sacraficial lamb for the process.
In the grand scheme of things though. I am happy that players will have another available option besides college or overseas. NBA's development player development. While it has improved over this past decade. It still has a long way to go. Strengthening the G-league will go a long ways toward that.

Yep, plus the expectations are different for a high schooler in the MLB minors than one who is in the G-League. I can see all the knee jerk reactions when Jalen doesn't show dominance from the start. Remember how we killed RJ after summer league? We may need tiers like AA and AAA. Jalen reminds me of Vince Carter out of highschool. Tremendous athletic talents. But Vince stayed three years at UNC, although he only needed two IMHO. Does a year in the G-League equal a year in structured developmental environment like Villanova? I guess we'll find out at some point.
