Basketball is the only major sport where the best college team would have a chance to beat the worst pro team right?

Even LeBron wasn't very good relative to the NBA as a whole as a rookie. The Wolves have multiple recent number one picks with some actual NBA experience and are still garbage

Illinois won it a few years back but haven't repeated. It'd be a lot better sport if loving osu/mich weren't so good, but Oklahoma's had a great run recently

Hey it's not like I'm one of those retards a few years ago arguing that Alabama could beat the Lions. The best ever CFB team would lose by 60 to the 08 Lions. Basketball just seems like it has the easiest jump from amateur to pro for any major sport but I'm probably underestimating it.

The vastly more sophisticated offenses and superior defensive abilities of pretty much everyone plus access to NBA weight rooms and training regimens would lead to a massacre in which every possession ends in a dunk

The difference in athleticism is off the charts, plenty of dudes dominate in college and just can't do anything as a pro. Like, 1990 UNLV or the Fab Five might have come the closest to being able to hang athletically, but the instant you have to sub someone in they'd be playing 4 on 5. And even before that they'd be at a huge disadvantage. e: Beaten. Yeah it's just a different world.

I hate UNC and Roy Williams mostly because they dominate my team literally every time but no one wants loving Syracuse in the title game with an NIT resume. It's all your fault Middle Tennessee
