    The only complaint I heard about the Ignite team was that from a player development standpoint it was crap compared to college programs. I can’t recall it in detail but something about both coaches and on the floor everyone was trying to do their own thing, there was no team development, and it didn’t serve those players well in the NBA as the college guys were noticeably further along than them. Of course, that could in theory be fixed, as it did many good things as you mentioned
