2) Why would you have to be a First Team All American and the top pick in the NBA Draft to be someone who would start on every team in America? Last I checked, there are no teams in college basketball that have the 5 best players in the country. That's silly.

If you're a PF, to start on EVERY team you would have to be better than EVERY PF. If you can play multiple positions (say PF and SF) you have to be better than the PF or the SF on EVERY team. The first example almost surely makes you a 1st team AA. The second example provides more wiggle room but still makes you elite. Whether (as a PF or a PF/SF) you're a "better player" than the PG, 2G or C is beside the point.

So now you don't have to be Zaire Williamson (whoever that is) or AD to start for every team in the country? I agree, then.

Drew Timme was not named to the preseason First, Second, or Third All American Teams. He's also not going to be the top pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, barring some unimaginable happenings. I'm pretty confident every coach in America would be thrilled to have him in their starting lineup.

What does preseason All American teams have to do with anything? If Timme ends up being the best player at his position in the country I like his chances at being an AA at the end of the season. There's a reason they play the games.

A few months back you actually wrote a thoughtful post. I complimented you on it. What happened to that guy?

I don't think 82 called Garcia the best player at his position in the country. But if you want to turn it into a different argument I guess you can do that.

A very simple guide to Lennys' arguments:  if an argument in any way helps him minimize the accomplishment of a Wojo-era team, he will make said argument.

Lenny may not be ProJo but he's fair in his assessment of the team and players.  He gives credit where it's due.

Well, if he would start at his position on any team in the country isn't that the same thing?

It's not 1955. Basketball is no longer played with a single point guard, a single shooting guard, a single small forward, a single power forward, and a single center on the court at all times.

You're right. Tonight Symir started at center, Cain at the 2, Garcia at PG, Koby at PF and Theo at SF because, we'll, it's not 1955. LOL

This is one of your dumber takes. But okay. I guess Iggy is a center now because, well, you must have a center on the court at all times and the Warriors were closing out titles with him playing their big.

As always, thanks for the laughs.
