Listening to the radio today on the way home they were talking about Greivis Vasquez. The possible former Maryland Terp basketball player. Reports are that he is leaning towards entering the NBA draft although he is yet to hire an NBA agent. He's had workouts with the Wiz and the Cavs have possibly expressed interest in taking him with their 1st round pick. How is this happening? Two weeks ago he was projected as late 2nd round to undrafted. What could an individual team workout show that would bump his stock up so much? Is he all of a sudden not turning the ball over constantly or yelling at and flicking off the crowd?
In the NBA, there is only guaranteed money if you are drafted in the 1st round so if you are a borderline pick why even contemplate entering? Go back for your last year, try to actually win something, which Vasquez has yet to do during his time there. This
cocky, overrated, asshole of a basketball player would be making a huge mistake to enter. Ask former Terp star John Gilhchrist how his early entry went. The once promising star went undrafted and ended up playing in a professional league in Israel. How many of you guys have heard of the Israel basketball league? EXACTLY! Hell, what do I care. College basketball would be better off without him, but the NBA would be worse.
