It's not about running their own lives. You have to be 21 to drink. That doesn't mean our lives are getting run. It is just a rule.

Also, as said above, most players aren't even ready to play at 20!!! I am sick of waiting 2, 3 even 4 years for a player to develop enough skill to be ready to play at the NBA level.
