So I just read Andrew Sharp's latest article to see if he is always as dense as he was with his Kobe Bryant article, and I'm wondering how everyone else feels about the NBA Draft Combine. I personally feel that if I was a GM I'd like to watch it and see the physical attributes of each individual player before I draft. I also think it shows where someone is in their maturity and how they practice and workout in the offseason. Someone who comes in clowning and out of shape I would think twice about even if they were one my first prospects. I feel that for as many busts you may draft from it, you may have just as many gems come out of it. I think it to be a good thing and if they even put them into scrimmages to see how they play with each other. Of course, it opens up the risk of injury, but really unless you were already frail boned to begin with, which would then expose them as being easily injured, then its not much of a risk unless someone else is dogging it and playing sloppy and lazy. So let me know what you guys think.
