Will they ever be talking about this group like they do the Class of 1986?

This is a lot of money to be thrown at some very young and uneducated kids.

The NBA has a huge problem on their hands and have you to even begin to address it.

Any idea why they have yet to address it?

If I had to guess, I think it is because they have no idea how to address it. David Stern is not capable of putting himself in the shoes of a 17 year old inner city minority who has just become a millionaire overnight.

Dunno. Maybe it is purely burying his head in the sand and hoping for the best.

Sounds like a baseball owner.
