The thought process

Basketball men make basketball decisions. They don’t consider the kid. They don’t consider the school. Why would they? Hence: “I don’t know if he could do much more in college. I mean, really: How much more can he produce? How much better is he going to get playing against that competition? I guess he could fine-tune his game a little bit and play another year at the point. It’s tough to say whether he’s going to be a good pro or not. He’s a little frail, and how athletic is he? What position will he play? Who is he going to guard? There are a lot of question marks with him but, in the right situation, he could be just fine. A player is a player, and he can play.”
