Each year, you have drafted players that never see any minutes in the NBA. Not every team get franchise player every year or even every five seasons. In BB, league draft might be a bit worse, but you have thousands other drafts to chose from.
This is really funny and completely devoid of any demonstrable truth. We have 48 draftees for 16 teams while the NBA has 60 for 30. Problem is the NBA choses from 33,000 college players plus overseas players every year. In BB terms, among those 33,000 there are also 'announcer' potential players, but among the 60 there are no announcers and there are usually several who end up in the ASG (some franchise players don't even go to the ASG) and at least one who put together at a MVP worthy seasons or (for younger ones) has the potential to get there:
2005 Chris Paul
2006 Aldridge
2007 Durant
2008 Westbrook
2009 Curry, Harden
2010 Paul George
2011 Kawhi
2012 A. Davis
2013 Giannis
2014 Wiggins
2015 Towns
It's true that some NBA draftees never get to play in the NBA, but that is nothing compared to BB where the percentage of players from the BB draft who are fired in the first week is over 30%.
Also you said you have thousand of drafts to chose from, eh. As if there weren't thousands of teams as well. Truth is we get 3 trainee out of 48 each, NBA teams get 2 out of 1100 each. Many BB drafts don't have players who can become Allstars in D1, let alone MVP.
