Which college can build the best basketball team out of former players that currently play in the NBA? (This is inspired from an interesting discussion that started in another thread).
A single elimination playoff bracket is going to decide the winner... and its time to select the 16-team field!
In order to qualify, the college must have at least 5 active NBA players. The player must have played in at least 1 NBA game in the 2013-14 season to be considered active (Or be on a team's injury report for the entire season).
Anyone posting in this thread becomes part of the selection committee.
Here are the 8 teams (alphabetical order) that are considered virtual locks for the field. These teams have full 5-man benches.
Here are the remaining 13 teams (only 21 schools qualified with 5 or more active NBA players). These teams are on the bubble. Only 8 can be part of the tournament.
Okay, make your case for your selection.
The criteria for a deserving resume is simply how good of a basketball team you think they would be. Talent, chemistry, size, style, and how well the pieces fit together, are all good things to consider. (The particular starters and their positions shown here aren't locked in, just a starting point).
Rank the 13 bubble teams in order of resume. The composite rankings of all posts will determine the field. (I'll let the discussion go for awhile to get as much input as possible, since the cbb page doesn't get as much traffic these days)
Once the field is selected, the next step (probably another thread) will be seeding the field.
