Can Danny: Who's Afraid of the 2011 Draft?

While a lot of teams were bragging about grabbing 2011 draft picks, you have to wonder: why would any legit underclassmen enter the draft this year? There will be a lockout looming (and I think it's 90% going to happen) so you might not even be able to play basketball for a year, unless you move overseas, and unless something crazy happens in the lottery, your prospective destinations are: Cleveland, Minnesota, Sacramento, Washington, Toronto, Utah, and Detroit.

Now Washington's not a bad place to live and you'd be teamed with John Wall but seriously, who wants to leave being a god on a college campus and having fun in college to get into the middle of a labor disagreement while house hunting in Cleveland or Minnesota? Some guys might want to leave while their stock is high or would rather have the basketball version of a year abroad by playing in Italy or something while the NBA sorts out their finances but I think most kids might opt to stay in school.
