Kobe, LeBron and Garnett have all had success without school. They have also exhibited personality issues that might have been addressed if they had matured among their peers.
For everyone of them, there are hundreds of players who failed greatly. They lose all their money and have no college education to rely on.
None of these guys came into the league with any resemblance of polished game.
I didn't comment much on their game.
What I commented on was their mental and emotional development.
