cause it makes the biggest fools look even more stupid:
The kid must be woefully short on actual basketball skills...

NewA freak 18-year old athlete with off-the-chart measurables wants so bad to be in the NBA that he and his handlers try to broker an agreement right up until the final deadline...
In a league that values youth, athleticism, and potential more than any other traits in a player...
And he evidently can't get one team to nod or wink at him yesterday...
I'm no NBA expert, but that tells me the kid ain't anywhere close to being the transcendental player that LPT needs to win a title under Lite. A kid like Anthony Davis.
In fact, he might not be as good as most of the ex-slappy five-stars who are already OUT of the league, kids who actually had some complement of basketball skills.
Of course, he and Lite went to great effort to PREVENT him from showing those skills.
And perhaps the best part is a significant number of slappy fans already dislike a kid who is NOW supposed to be the missing piece to a puzzle. Somewhere I've read this plot before.
