Maybe College Would've Helped Jermaine By , Section NBA Posted on Fri Apr 15, 2005 at 07:08:13 PM EST Lately there's been a lot of talk about changing the age limit to enter the NBA. The idea is to move the age limit from 18 to 20 years of age, and the reason for all this arguing is Jermaine O'Neal's comments. Jermaine says it's racist, when it's really about business. Imagine you're 17, and you live in some urban city in America. Your family is poor, but you're an amazing basketball player with the potential to jump right into the NBA. In this situation who wouldn't go pro? The problem is almost every teen with this kind of talent is choosing to play in the NBA instead of getting a college education and a chance to play for some of the best college coaches in America, but who would blame them. But it's more than just a problem for teens with NBA potential; it's starting to become a problem for the NBA. It'd be easy just to say, "Let `em play" because so many kids in the world have dreams of being an NBA all-star and why take that away? Going pro after high school gets you instant money and you don't risk the chance of becoming injured by playing in college. Every teenage phenom that has a chance to go to the NBA forgets about college though, because to him college looks like the long route to money, and the NBA is a short cut. What happens if he gets there and self-destructs and blows his chance though? High school players aren't always prepared mentally for the NBA. Less than twenty-five percent of the players who try to make the jump fail. They don't think about what it does for the NBA either.

Pages: Jermaine O'Neal speaks out against age limit (Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images) Posted by: Toast An age limit is being floated around the NBA with the current Collective Bargaining Agreement about to expire after this season. Commissioner David Stern wants to implement a minimum age limit of 20 for NBA players, invisioning something similar to the limit the NFL has (3 years removed from high school). Forward Jermaine O'Neal has labeled such a limit as an example of racism. O'Neal commented, "You don't hear about it in baseball or hockey. To say you have to be 20, 21 to get in the league, it's unconstitutional. If I can go to the U.S. Army and fight the war at 18 why can't you play basketball for 48 minutes?" http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2035132 Posted by: Infinite[TT] Yeah, racism. They should force them to get a 4 year degree so they don't think age = race. Fucking moron. Posted by: hungryghoul The part about racism didn't even fit with the rest of his argument.

Almost all college basketball players are black too. That makes no sense. Agree or disagree with an age limit in the NBA, the idea that it's racist is moronic. For every Amare Stoudemire and LeBron James, there's 10 Leon Smith's. Posted in Sports 9 Comments Add yours Comments actionBERG said... I think he makes a valid point, in that there shouldn't be a law to prevent high schoolers from making the jump. If the owners are willing to draft someone from high school, why should anything stop them from doing that? If a kid needs to make money to help his family, then nothing should stop him from doing that. Plus I am sure there are many college seniors who go pro that don't make it either. Posted on April 12, 2005 at 02:49 PM Brian said... I think an age limit would be good for both the NBA and NCAA. Imagine TJ Ford, Carmello Anthony, Emeka Okafor, LeBron James if they were still playing college ball There are valid points on both side of the argument, but to even bring up race is just plain dumb.

Jermaine O'Neal ticked off Larry Bird by saying he wouldn't have signed the seven-year deal with the Indiana Pacers for that surreal sum last month if he knew the new boss was going to fire coach Isiah Thomas. The 6-foot-11 forward-center stopped short of demanding a trade, but made it clear it was on his mind. Bird, a straight shooter in a suit as he was in a uniform, suggested Wednesday he'd accommodate O'Neal if he wanted to play somewhere else - provided the Pacers got "something good in return." Bird never had much patience for whining, figuring it got in the way of winning.

Global National Technology Entertainment ... Next Debate over age limit for pro basketball continues The discussions over an age limit are part of the NBA's collective bargining talks. The player's union is historically against age limitations and still maintain that line but are speaking of a possibility of introducing a minor league system for the NBA. By LIZ ROBBINS The New York Times March 27 It's NCAA tournament time. Do you know where your future NBA. stars are? Are they even allowed to stay up late to watch the games? Pacers' star Jermaine O'Neal, who entered the NBA after high school, opposes the age restrictions saying they discriminate against black players. (AP Photo/Michael Conroy) While 20-year-old LeBron James prepares for his first playoff series in his second season, the issues of the proposed 20-year-old entry age limit are simmering in the NBA's collective bargaining talks. So, too, are the questions about what is best, and for whom. On a conference call Tuesday, Commissioner David Stern discussed how the league tied the age limit to the concept of the National Basketball Development League's serving as a feeder system. Stern envisioned 15 minor league teams sharing affiliations with two NBA teams each. (His vision is getting there: after next season's Southwest expansion, the development league will have 10 teams.) This would enable teams to teach players skills without stashing them on the injured list.
