Reed's decision, whichever way he decides, can't be "stupid" except to someone that is only focused on money or only on UK and their desire to see him.
Saying it would be "stupid" of him to come back is a very ignorant comment. Not surprising, but ignorant.
It's his life and his path, and it's really a shame to see that people still don't respect that after decades on these boards. No one on this or any message board knows how EITHER DECISION will affect his life. If he goes to the NBA too early, it could hurt his career and affect his life negatively as much or more than not leaving, regardless of the money involved in that 1 year. No one knows either outcome.
You can keep saying it over and over (and no doubt will), but just like a toddler repeating something, it doesn't make it true or right.
