[QUOTE="NotThatPierre, post: 1523026, member: 746673"] I agree with this. I think you have a lot more opportunity to develop as a player outside of college. You probably get a bit less "parenting" which no doubt can be a problem. Raw talent, be it brains or athleticism, is just part of the equation for success. Hopefully KW has some of those other qualities. I'll also say that while you have more opportunities to practice and develop in a professional setting, there's also not as great of an incentive for teams to work with you rather than pitch you. There's a lot of basketball talent floating around out there. Teams will only put up with so many problems for middling guys. [/QUOTE]
