The Diva Generation?

This ESPN article (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/9210329/top-recruits-today-often-bring-baggage-creates-problems-even-best-coaches-college-basketball?src=mobile) on the Diva Generation is quite interesting. I just wonder if this entitlement culture is evident in Australian Basketball?

Good article, but I don't think it's anywhere near as relevant in Australia, as there is relatively little money or profile on offer for a professional basketballer. Plus it's inate for Aussies to knock you down if you get too big for your boots.

It's becoming more common even here. There's more and more kids that can't handle constructive criticism or understand that they have to actually EARN playing time.
