Here's a dirty little secret that no one wants to admit: The NBA Draft Combine is meaningless. Evaluating players isn't hard, and there's no need to take a trip to Chicago to do it (although Chicago is a mighty fine town).
Seriously, what's the point of an event where they measure players without shoes? I asked our interns here at Liberty Ballers to do some research last week, and they were able to confirm that there has never been a single game in NBA history played without sneakers.
Secondly, two of the best players from the 2014 combine were Rodney Hood and Noah Vonleh, and they barely got on the court last season.
