I know he will test the nba waters and that's fine. But I hope he makes the right decision to return back to chapel hill. He could dominate downlow and be one of the best big men in the country. Which would raise his stock and elevate him to a high lottery pick next season.
I hope Bradley stays..
- Thread starter smooth as butter
- Start date
Damn the OAD thing. This "go for the money ASAP" mentality sucks. Think of all the players we've had that could have done that, but didn't.
Unless he's a first rounder, Tony should come back. He could be a lottery pick after next year. But it's his decision and I wish him the best regardless.

As this all unfolds, I see him gone, too.
Enjoy this championship as long as it lasts because next season will be a struggle.

The NBA money is crazy. Get a second contract as soon as possible. End of the bench guys are killing it. The minimum salary with 1 year experience is over 900k and climbing.
The TV money changed everything. Screw the draft just go as soon as you can is the new message.
But the flip side to that is more players are declaring and then finding themselves out of the game with no education and no paycheck for playing ball. And it's not just an issue with finding a job. Some of these guys get their ego so bruised, they struggle with emotional difficulties. Here's a good article on Josh Selby - former #1 recruit in the country.

Exactly. It isn't all about signing a contract and "getting the clock started" as many have stated here. If you aren't ready, that second contract will never happen. Waaaaaay too many guys forget that.
until the nba and the ncaa work together to instill the baseball rule, it should go back to high school kids having the option to go pro or enroll.
It should. But with the NBA making the decision, it won't. The best we can hope for is a "two years removed from high school" rule, but the NBA Players Union is fighting that. Not sure why, because it seems it would provide a little more job security for veteran players. But I don't even try to understand the machinations of pro sports any more.
