Conveyor Belt, anyone?

Thought you guys might find this interesting, and if some of you haven't read William Rhoden's $40 Million Slaves, you might want to check it out. His concept of the "conveyor belt" is profound, and I couldn't help thinking about it when I read this: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/22/magazine/22basketball-t.html

A lot of folks have been talking about it, and I can see why. What do you guys make of this Allonzo Trier individual? And is this article connected?: http://vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1153364/index.htm

  1. First, what are his grades like? I hope he does continue to grow, if not, it will be difficult (although not impossible... Spud Webb, Nate Robinson). Sounds like he is getting paid... I guess he is not trying to go through the NCAA before the NBA although the rules state a player must complete one year of college (or one year removed) to be eligible for the League. Good luck to him...
