BTI’s Rants and Ramblings: Let’s Work On Some Perspective…

I will admit I was not, and am not, thrilled with another group of UK players headed out the door for the NBA Draft this year. I just don’t think anybody can reasonably say that the games of Keldon Johnson or Tyler Herro are “ready” for the NBA. We certainly can be proven wrong in the next year but having watched them for 37 games, they looked more like freshman than NBA prospects most of the year. Nonetheless, their dreams, the money, and the overall atmosphere surrounding the program consistently is pushing these type of guys out after 1 year.
