Had an interesting debate with some colleagues the other day. Here is the scenario;
You take a five man roster of the following guys, A healthy Anthony Davis, LeBron James, Steph Curry, and two seventh graders that can play a little bit of basketball. Maybe theses seventh graders are just the best on their middle school basketball team.
The Question?!?! If you took this five man roster and entered them into the Men’s Division 1 NCAA tournament….How far would they get? Do they win the whole thing? do they blow everyone out? Or do they lose every game terribly?
Please comment and let me know your thoughts! I will not post my thoughts for a little while so I do not influence anyone one way or the other.
This team wins every game in a blowout, unless it is required that the 7th graders touch the ball on every possession. I don’t mean just touch but make a “basketball” move. If this is the case, I believe this team still wins, however games will be much closer as most teams would trap or double team the youngsters.
