Would this year's Kentucky team minus defections make the NBA playoffs?

Starters: Andrew Harrison (So.), Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (Sr.), Julius Randle (So.), Anthony Davis (Sr.), Nerlens Noel (Jr.)
Key reserves: Willie Cauley-Stein (Jr.), Marquis Teague (Sr.), James Young (So.), Alex Poythress (Jr.), Dakari Johnson (So.), Karl-Anthony Towns (Fr.), Archie Goodwin (Jr.), Aaron Harrison (So.), Devin Booker (Fr.), Trey Lyles (Fr.), Marcus Lee (So.), Tyler Ulis (Fr.)
In the east, no doubt in my mind.

No way. There are 3 real nba players in that bunch.

No chance. NBA players do this for a living. They play longer games, have a shorter shot clock, longer three point shot, and most importantly, MUCH more practice time because they don't have to pretend to be college students. The Knicks blow, but they're all NBA players.
Also, they wouldn't have all that depth. Towns wouldn't have gone to play at a school that had Davis, Noel and Kidd-Gilchrist already in tow.

No. Anthony Davis has a much better team than that with New Orleans and they aren't gonna make it.

They could probably beat the '92 Dream Team, though.

Only one of these guys is good in the NBA

I dunno man. I think Towns is gonna wreck shop in the NBA. By the end of the season he would be a well oiled machine. Two NBA all stars on your team one of them arguably the best player in the league.

I think the frontcourt is intriguing. Because of AD, Nerlens, Towns.
But those guards are atrocious as far as an NBA caliber backcourt

Also worth mentioning that Davis didn't learn his jumper until he was already in the NBA. He wouldn't be the same offensive force he is right now if he was still at Kentucky.

This is laughable.

None of the guards are ever going to be anything in the NBA. The best forwards are average NBA players at this point. They'd get stomped worse than the 76ers.

Why exactly is that laughable? I don't remember Davis routinely dropping 30 per game in college unless my memory is shot
Posted on 3/7/15 at 6:47 pm to VADawg
Why do people always ask these dumb arse questions, NO team in college will never beat a professional team, ever.

You could do this with 100 teams
ETA and no

You think that team above would go 0-82? get real. AD alone would be 15 wins.
