      I think the NBA should increase it to 4 years out of high school, so players can get their College degree, or some life experience, before they come into the league.

      If I’m an athlete that’s about to be league bound in a year or 2 why tf would I be worried about a damn degree. Shouldn’t NO professional sports mandate that as a law. Sports is a form of entertainment bro. You don’t need a degree to entertain the public and play a sport. Just have to be good enough to play. I get Watchu tryna do you know , being a pro athlete is still a job technically they still get paid twice a month like most people. But that’s not a regular job and these ain’t regular people like u & I. That alone is enough of a qualification for them to play their sport professionally.

    These types of players benefit the teams in playoff contention (usually picking lower in the draft) anyway. Not justifying his fall, but was more likely to be wasted on a rebuilding team "reaching" for him.

    I have a grammatical question as a foreigner:
    Why do people say K-Necht? Is it just for the word play that people outdo grammar?
    Why does the rule of k+n = "n" sound (like in "I knew it" or for example "Beyonce Knowles") doesn't apply here and everybody seperate the K from the N?
    Why don't people say Beyonce K-Nowles? (word play with cannoli 😂)
    Thank you very much to anyone who can answer.
    And the dude is very entertaining, hoping to see him go far in the league!

    • @jerrymorelock2056

      'Knecht' is of German origin and is a cognate of 'knight,' also of German origin and of similar meaning. In Old/Middle English both words were pronounced similarly, beginning with a hard 'k'. Over time, changes in spoken English occurred and the 'k' sound lost, but the spelling--probably because of the printing press--was locked. That 'k' is still heard in German. Similar for 'knife' which also originally began with a hard 'k.' For a more in depth explanation check out the Wikipedia article 'silent k and g.'

    • @stenstensson304
      @stenstensson304 8 днів тому +2

      That’s a great question actually. My best guess would be that his family name is originally from another country, maybe Germany, where the k-n is not pronounced like an English/American k-n, and they just carried the pronunciation with them.

    Why did so many teams pass on him? I remember during the draft they were surprised he was available past the lottery. I'm genuinely asking. Was it a concern about his defense? He's been playing really solid defense as far as I'm aware... i literally have no idea how or why he fell to 17th or whatever it was
