      Yeah, I was watching the Last Dance this month, and it was so surprising that the bulls got a crazy contract on Pippen so he was only making $2 million a year for a few years while the NBA had exposed in popularity (thanks in part to Pippen) but they didn't renegotiate his contract to reflect it. If anything the increase in player salaries for playing in a such a popular sport should go to the legends and foundation builders of the league's current successes.

    I would never pick a 15 yr old for the NBA. He might be great but let the boy finish high school first. Also, him having a superstar NBA player for a dad does "NOT" guarantee he will even reach or surpass his father level. The rules are in place for many reasons. It protects players and teams.

    If you take football (soccer) as an example, a lot of teams have "youth development" programs where they scout young talent and sign them into their programs. Each team has various junior teams, U12, U16, U21 etc and if you're too good for your current age group you move up to the older teams. That way you get young superstars breaking into the top tier teams when they are very young. Michael Owen, Wayne Rooney, Mbappe, Messi, CR7 all broke into first teams in their teen years (Rooney was 16 when he made his Everton debut in the premier league). But this format does mean there are a lot of young players who don't make it past youth level.

      @joenicedj 5 років тому +132

      I also think the Spurs draft philosophy prevents catastrophic injury. Dejounte Murray not withstanding, the Spurs typically draft college juniors and seniors or international players with a few years of experience. The Spurs are not drafting fast-twitch athletes or performers that meet the "bigger, stronger, faster" prerequisites. For comparison, Tony Parker is not Russell Westbrook. Manu is not Paul George. Tim Duncan is not Joel Embiid. Bruce Bowen is not Blake Griffin.
      Alternatively stated, they are not drafting nineteen-year-old kids. They draft players that have grown into their "man-bodies". Of course, standard basketball injuries will happen (dislocated fingers, sprained ankles), however, having the muscle mass, proper training, and diet, traditional basketball training methods prevents catastrophic injuries.

    • @oskarihaapamaki7517
      @oskarihaapamaki7517 5 років тому +29

      G leugue doesn't attract players that can make money In Europe. In Europe big teams have their own minor league teams and take time developing players and some teams knowingly sign young talent to develop and sell on. Some leagues are seen as development leagues for young players homegrown and foreing even Americans have to earn their spots playing In lower tier leagues. Big clubs rarely have many young players In their rotation. Aau sees players playing not developing and to have needed rest. Just pushing your body to the limit constanly just makes more wear and tear. Develop skills and teaching the game makes better players. Less games More practice for young players.

      That MLB mentality doesn't work for basketball though. A big part of MLB's low tv and online viewership is the inability for fans to keep up with rookie players once drafted into the league. The NBA as a players league, wouldn't be as popular were it's big name rookie's disappearing into the minor leagues for 4-8 years.

I agree with the "he/ she won't know the players/prospects" argument, but at the end of the day it is all about fun and if the prospects/players can stay healthy, it would be dope to watch.

      Daqueda The fact that MLB has double the amount of games as the NBA and 10x the NFL is the reason for lower attendance and TV viewership. When there are a 162 games obviously each game will be in demand less. It’s pretty simple.

    These players are getting hurt so much because they are playing almost year round by age 13. The game is also faster with more space. More movement, more cuts, more chances for injuries.

Or worse, cut at 15-18. I also worry about what that will do to someone that young. Because these kids will be tasked with taking care of their family before they can even drive or vote.

When young athletes focus on one sport they put constant stress on the same muscles from doing the same repetitive movements.

      Wrong. I'd rather practice than be on the road playing short games and shitty AAU Practices. It's a joke and usually coached by someone who barely knows the game. I coached a year and taught the kids things they weren't learning in AAU and whipped the AAU coaches ass all year, and won the championship against another team.. I always got more out of practice than playing games. You need to practice all year around. That's how you can get to the next level. Games are important too, but practice is more important than games. All you need is a few friends to play with you and run drills. Pistol Pete did it and look how good he was. So did Jordan. He sucked but practiced on his own to become great.

  • @lordjael

    The reason young players get so injured in the modern era is strictly due to AAU basketball within America. Summer circuits force these children to put an unprecedented amount of wear and tear on their bodies by playing 3-4 games a day at times. This easily turns into around 8-12 games a weekend depending on the level of the tournament. Not to mention these young men have team practice, they train individually, and also have poor fast food diets to make it to their 3-4 games in timely fashion.
    Their bodies are FAR from prepared. Every single player on your chart you listed with injury is American, with the exception of Wagner, Porzingis and Simmons. Porzingis didn’t tear his ACL his rookie year. However, Ben Simmons was injured as an Australian b/c he still trained and played within the American AAU circuit, which is a complete waste of time. 😴
    Then after AAU, there’s literally the entire high school season. When do these kids rest of take breaks now? Seriously. Their bodies aren’t prepared for nonstop wear and tear for such a forceful sport. This isn’t table tennis. It’s the electric and explosive sport of basketball. Get it together.

    Why so many injuries?: Because they are not prepared, I’m not talking about vertical jump, skills and how much they bench. Their body development is not finished and coaches expect them to be as good as NBA players. They concentrate mostly on improving abilities that can be seen and measured. It’s great when a player is dynamic and his athleticism is good, but if your knees and ankles can’t stand landing from 90cm vertical, you’re in trouble, you need to be strong enough ( overall strong). Coaches shouldn’t see just the way up but also the ability to handle way down, or just fast enough to the side but also handle the “stop movement”, movement stereotype is very important!
    I was overtrained as a 16y old javelin thrower and ended up in the hospital because of ambitions of my coach. What I’m trying to say, it’s better to be on top when you are 25 then when you’re just a boy.

    The closed league system in the US has its downsides. I like the open system in Europe. Playing is the first team isn't about age at all, it's about skills. And there is no restriction there. A club, whether it be football (soccer) or basketball, train their their players at all age. They have kids teams up to their first team. If a kid is good enough to play with the first team, then so be it. And that's what a sports club should be all about. In the US, it's schools which educate about sports. There's no continuity as kid change schools all the time. Furthermore, they have no exposure to professionals of their own club like they would in Europe. For this aspect, I prefer the open league system. Business-wise, it's a different story

    I think the reason rookies get hurt is their playing more than they ever have. And getting more ready for a season then they ever have. And on top of that, they're facing bigger, stronger, better competition than ever. And they're learning a new way to play, and finding their old tricks aren't as successful.
    Then, they have more pressure to preform. It sucks, but teams want their new rookie to have an immediate impact. Every roster spot is so important, most teams don't want to spend 3 years getting a player ready.

    The push for AAU + the 1 and done rule - declining NCAA. Jordan and his peers all spent significant time in college (3+ yrs) (Kobe and Garnet were exceptions, not the rule). There's a reason Jordan was so spectacular. His athleticism + I.Q. + FUNDAMENTALLY SOUND. Theses young guns today are athletically great and have wonderful feel for the game, but what they seem to be lacking is fundamentals. One of the things I noted in this particular video was the clips showing injuries, almost all of them showing the player injuring themselves when 1.) either making a fundamentally unsound move or 2.) out of position move. Those are classic setups for injury. I'm not a college basketball guy, but that was a classic benefit of spending 3-4 yrs in the 'system'. Players came out more prepared and ready to go. Yes. Injuries still occurred and will occur, however, players were more aware of what their bodies could/couldn't do and were less likely to injure themselves regarding this.

  • @33xacex33

    The article I read, which may have been the same one you cited in the video, made a point that these trainers are using methods to teach kids to have a 50 inch vertical, but they're lower body can only handle the impact from a 30 inch vertical. Hence why most of these injuries are impact related. That, on top of never training anything but basketball specific movements and never giving your body a break from that training (most of these superstar athletes are playing basketball non-stop, all year round) is a recipe for disaster. I think it's only going to get worse as athletes try to stay ahead of the pack and trainers try to keep up with freak athletes.

    First theory: It's the shoes. My throwback Nikes and Jordans seem to be much more secure and sturdy than the light fabric wrapped sneakers like the Flyknit. Plus, I grew up being told that high tops are better for preventing ankle rolls. Everybody is wearing low tops now.
    Second theory: It's the eurostep. I feel like there's a correlation with the injury data shown on this video to when the eurostep became prevalent in the league.

      The problem with evaluating at the high school level is competition. When you say someone is the best prospect, that is in comparison to his overall competition. Are you talking about someone that is a 90 out a 100, thrashing 85's... or someone that is 75 out of 100, thrashing 70's. They both look the same at the high school level, but one will surely succeed at the NBA level, while the other will most likely be a bust.
