Should we expand NBA draft to 7 rounds and 210 picks?
please explain your rationale.
No. Every year there are already plenty of second rounders that barely get to play in the NBA.

>teams only have like 11 players who get minutes as it is
>let's make them draft twice the players
keep your opinions to yourself
pham there's only 450 roster spots in the whole league. Unless you want to like, quadruple the number of teams, no.
that would only be feasible if NBA teams had a viable minor league system and the NBDL is a joke
>>77213671
at that point 'we' should probably just add some teams.
OH WAIT
>>77213671
expand it to 30 rounds and 900 picks

I mean, look at the ice hockey
they have AHL/ECHL and shit
NHL teams own rights for tens of players and they could call them anytime they need
>>77214040
they have that, it's called The G League

Hockey takes more players and there are more injuries I think.
Teams like the sixers would have 20+ picks with this.
G-league rosters would be stuffed.
Wouldn't work.

minor league basketball would be pretty awesome 2bh, it's cheap as fuck to organize and every city of any size has a basketball arena.

NBA doesn't have a 3rd tier to work with, and some of the teams don't even have d-league teams.
Look back at the history of the NBA, they used to draft tons of players.1976 for example had 10 rounds and 173 players.

Decision by the NBPA to increase the talent pool.

It really should work a lot better than the NBDL. It's just that the salaries in Europe, China and a few other places are so insanely high in comparison to minor league basketball that most players would rather just prove their talent elsewhere and hope to make it in the league. European players have a better chance of making it than players in the "NBA systems" that are in the NBDL
the majority of players drafted in the second half of the second round will never make it more than a year or two in the league, why would you want to add more rounds?
