    Default If Parker, Wiggins, and Randle are all First Team All Americans...

    Does the NBA need to rethink the one year rule?

    The idea was that the year of college would be good for them, a stepping stone to the NBA, but if we reach a point where they are the elite of elite at the next level straight away is the system working?

    The rule wasn't made for guys like Parker, Wiggins, and Randle. It was made for guys like Ndudi Edi.

    I don't love the rule, but I enjoy watching these guys play in college, even if its for only one year.

    Agreed, but the rule is costing the aforementioned players a year of salary.

    It was actually made for NBA ownership.

    Even if they don't they should change it back. It's a terrible rule.
