Preseason Hype Thread 23-24

I don't know if the '92 Dream Team could do that against college players.

Did they ever have to play ISU in Hilton in November?!

Well if they give up 20 points tonight burn the tickets, the seats, the new floor boards and the scorer's table.

Otherwise this is pretty much reasonable.

Probably should buy the old Hilton floor and burn that too

I'd be curious to see how it would go if the worst NBA team (so probably the Pistons or the Spurs) played the best college team (so probably UConn) to see how it would go.

The NBA team would slaughter them, sure, but I'd wonder by how much. Would it, say, be worse than what UConn would do to one of the worst college teams in the country.

I know it would never happen, but at least it would be possible, unlike a college football team playing an NFL team (where that would be physically dangerous for the college players).

Oh, that all happens, unless TJ coaches right.

Is it an NBA team after NBA coaching and practice? Or just a collection of viable NBA players on a bad team?

With NBA coaching and time I think they crush the best college team in a bad way.

They'd both be blowouts, but I would have to think the worst NBA vs best NCAA would be a more competitive game than best NCAA vs worst NCAA

We're in luck. UConn played LIU who finished dead last in KenPom last year.

Final Score-114-61

Now UConn would've gotten smashed by the Pistons but I don't think they lose by 50. They probably lose by 30 but not 50.

Someone please correct me if Im wrong, but when ISU used to play exhibitions against the EA Sports team, wasnt that NBA/G League caliber players?

Are there one and done studs on the college team? I don't know really. Could be a close game. Maybe.
