Could these Tar Heels beat the Clippers?

[Vincepcion]

LOL at this thread. No freaking way.

Hansbrough is their Center FFS and he's like 6'7"

[hanco21]

if you think eric gordon is better than lawson you are insane my friend

Much better, Eric Gordon was a stud in college and he is now developed. Lawson is a good player but will still need 2-3 years before he competes in the NBA.

lol...no contest here. These are pros that we are talking about and Clippers have no shortage of talent when healthy. NC is a great team but them competing up against an established nba team (even with one of the worst records) would be a joke. Even if NC's starting 5 will be nba players will they all be starters? Either way they are all undeveloped to the pro game.

Thompson is overseas bound, either Green or Ellington will play in the NBA (career reserve). Both are too streaky to be anything more though.

Green will be drafted. Mark my words. He's an NBA talent.

6'9, but it doesn't matter.

Tar Heels could not beat the LA clippers but I think can beat up the Detroit Shock easily. Do you think so?

yes.

And beating another Michigan team would be appropriate.

Zach Randolph can single handlely beat UNC by himself.

[texhooper]

this thread has made its way to three forums.

no. the answer is no. now let's accept it and move on.

No f*ing way they would even compete. Carolina is definitely impressive and, IMO, on a whole 'nother level than all of the other college teams, but would get mopped by any NBA team.

[c-rok]

this is stupid. carolina dominated in college. they don't have really anyone that i think will be a long time starter in the nba.

not one player on carolina that i would take in the lottery. amazing college team, just not great pros.

in a 48 minute game clippers would win 50+.

whoever thinks a college team in basketball or football could even stay close with a pro team is stupid. simple as that. lions would destroy usc or florida. they would win by 6 touchdowns easily. pro teams are just so much better than college teams that it's not even fair. most players on the top college teams don't even turn out to be pros

The best PRO on UNC is Ed Davis with Lawson close behind. When Davis puts on some weight he will be nasty. Lawson is the only guy on UNC who I can see holding his own against SOME NBA talent RIGHT NOW. Obv the elites like CP3, D-Will would eat him alive.

But to the guy who said Lawson is better than Gordon - you have no idea what you're talking about. Gordon was a stud in college and is proving it against men - he put up very good numbers in his rookie year. He is, right now, a legit starting 2 in the NBA, and Lawson hasn't proven anything...I don't know why anyone would regard him as better. You probably listen to ESPN and CBS sucking him off too much (though credit is deserved).

Vince....well put. YOu nailed it on the button with every single thing you said...

They might give them a run for their money on a good day though.

Remember the Clippers lost to LA a few days ago by just 3 even though the spread was at double digits.

[NBA Hero]

impossible. even if its their all star

[andywend]

OK, how about a slightly different comparison.

The Connecticut Huskies WOMEN'S team against a medicore mens college basketball team (say Radford)?

What would the result of that game be?

[jsmithj88]

stop it with these stupid ass comparisons

[GetRich911]

Tyler Hansbrough = Brian Scalarbrine

[andywend]

jsmith, the last thing I will do is heed your request when you ask in that manner.

To that end, who do you all think would win:

UCON lady Huskies vs #1 mens high school basketball team in the country
