The equivalent for HBD would be if WIS decided that at the end of every MLB season, they would pick a dozen elite MLB talent and they would instantly retire (regardless of how many contract years they had remaining) in the name of fair competition. I wonder how that would go over...
Very poor analogy.
In the real world, elite baseball players typically don't retire and walk away from their contracts. However, also in the real world, elite underclassmen often do leave their programs early to turn pro.
I wasn't trying to make an analogy. I was pointing out what would be equivalent.
There is no comparison between HBD (since it is suppose to represent PRO MLB level so players have no where to go) and HD (which represents college hoops and players go EE to turn pro which has no NBA dynasty equivalent).
If I was trying to make an analogy it would be then to take the top 10 minor leaguers and have them go play overseas instead of wallowing in the minors, but that would still not effect they immediate chances to play for a HBD title now (maybe in the future).
