The NBA Draft

I feel the need to write about this, because as a sports fan, you never know who is going to be a huge success. Some college stars are awful when they go professional. This seems like the case especially if you are a Duke player. On the flipside, there are players that were mediocre and average in college, but tear it up in the NBA. This is why any draft held in any sport is such a gamble. I do agree with the sports authorities that the NBA is the safest bet for General Managers and Team Owners. The draft itself is a sports tradition in every sport as every team tries to get the leg up on each other.

The drafting process in sports brings about such excitement for sports fans everywhere. I love watching and following drafts in every sport. The football draft is one that I never miss. I watch it with one of old college roommates and great friends, and we actually discuss and dissect every pick. The NBA draft is to tough for the players, because NBA rosters are not very large. Plus, Europeans and other stars from around the world are able to declare for the draft as well. A player has to be really good just to make it into the NBA. After that, you are guaranteed nothing.
