Acc is where its at.

Pac-10

PG: Russell Westbrook, Jason Kidd, Jrue Holiday
SG: James Harden, O.J. Mayo, Brandon Roy
SF: Andre Igoudala, Demar Derozan, Richard Jefferson
PF: Kevin Love, Derrick WIlliams
C : Brook Lopez

And I hate to say it but this team gets blown out by every major conference.

Sarcasm, right?

That team looks pretty weak compared to what the ACC, Big East, Big 12, SEC and Big 10 could trot out.  The Big 10 might be vulnerable.

But they certainly will not be "blown out easily"... everyone on that list is being severely underrated

Prep to Pros

PG: Brandon Jennings*, Lou Williams, Shaun Livingston
SG: Kobe Bryant, J.R. Smith, Monta Ellis
SF: Lebron James, Josh Smith
PF: Kevin Garnet, Al Jefferson
C: Dwight Howard, Andrew Bynum

That team is most likely taking it to any all-Conference team barring a team implosion due to ego.

I'll take Wake Forest if they can find enough guys to suit up alongside Duncan and Paul. 

Texas will probably give them a good run for their money.

I'm trying to picture Chris Paul + Tim Duncan. o_O O_o

You can add Josh Howard when he was an all star

I'd most likely agree.  The Big East, SEC, Big 10 & Pac 10 would have no chance, they just have too many holes at various positions.  The ACC and Big 12 would make it very competitive though.

Just look at the matchups

ACC
PG:  Chris Paul, Kyrie Irving
SG: JJ Redick, Iman Shumpert
SF: Luol Deng, Harrison Barnes, Thaddeous Young
PF: Chris Bosh, Carlos Boozer
C:  Tim Duncan, Derrick Favors, JJ Hickson

ACC matches up very well at C/PF and is light years better at PG.  SG/SF are weaknesses, but Deng is a tough defender.

Big 12
PG: Chauncey Billups, Mario Chalmers
SG: Tony Allen, Avery Bradley
SF: Kevin Durant, Paul Pierce
PF: Blake Griffin
C:  LaMarcus Aldridge, DeAndre Jordan

Big 12 is a little thin, depth wise, but fairly equal amongst the starters.  PG/SF is a wash, and I'd probably put Pierce on Kobe, which would also be a wash.  HS would have the advantage at PF/C.

How about the Internationals?

Parker/Rubio/Dragic
Batum/Ginobili/Sefolosha
Galinari/Kirilenko/Ilyasova
Nowitzki/P. Gasol/Scola
M. Gasol/Ibaka/Gortat

Nowitzki/P. Gasol/Scola

I think some of them played Pro Basketball before they are 18, which will make them NCAA ineligible. I know Rubio is one, im not sure about the others.

That's a moot point.  All the rest of the players mentioned in this thread are NCAA ineligible as well.  They are all pros.

I wondered if this USC lineup would do damage in the Tournament.

Vucevic
Taj Gibson
DeMar Derozan
OJ Mayo
Nick Young

of course, this is against schools and their respective NBA Pro's lineup.

One and Done or Cinderella?

The OP does say "school" and not conference, so UNC would have a pretty solid contribution:


1  Jerry Stackhouse - Brooklyn Nets
2  Rasheed Wallace - New York Knicks
3  Vince Carter - Dallas Mavericks
4  Antawn Jamison - Los Angeles Lakers
5  Brendan Haywood - Charlotte Bobcats
6  Raymond Felton - New York Knicks
7  Marvin Williams - Utah Jazz
8  Tyler Hansbrough - Indiana Pacers
9  Danny Green - San Antonio Spurs
10  Brandan Wright - Dallas Mavericks
11  Ty Lawson - Denver Nuggets
12  Wayne Ellington - Cleveland Cavaliers
13  Ed Davis - Memphis Grizzlies
14  Tyler Zeller - Cleveland Cavaliers
15  John Henson - Milwaukee Bucks
16  Harrison Barnes - Golden State Warriors
17  Kendall Marshall - Phoenix Suns
