I think Silver is a pretty good commissioner.  But this idea is absolutely terrible.  The NBA is not the NFL. The NFL draft is interesting into the deep rounds.  Sometimes, the NBA draft isn't even interesting until the end of the lottery.

 

It might not be interesting, but from a functional standpoint, the draft could probably start going deeper with the NBA having developed a more formalized minor league system. The comparison to football shows the two round draft was originally apt. Before the g-league, neither sport had a minor system and football drafted 6 rounds into a 53 man roster, while basketball drafted two rounds into a 15 man roster. That's pretty comparable. If it got/gets to where to each NBA team carried another 15 players assigned to the G league, doubling the draft to 4 rounds would follow - roughly.
