Completely agree with your initial point. College basketball doesn’t need Nerlens Noel. But I still don’t think it’s fair to compare college to the NBA besides being completely subjective about it. College is a completely different game due to zone defense. It’s basically a huge equalizer. It allows those upsets that don’t happen in the NBA to happen. I don’t even like playing or playing against zone defense in pick-up basketball. If college BB didn’t have zone defense, college basketball would then need Nerlens Noel.

I think that the intensity that the players show is amazing but it’s also inherent due to the system. The players need to play 110% to put on their audition for the NBA as you said. If you’re already in the NBA, while there are some players that don’t always play with that tenacity, keep in mind that these players are ASSETS. Extremely expensive assets that if they’re in a triple overtime game that it may not be worth giving that 110% to risk injury. I’m not defending that, I’m just saying that that’s the unfortunate truth. It’s 1 game out of 82 versus a much shorter college season. Again, I agree with you, I just think it’s comparing apples to oranges.

Lee and Bradley are natural off the ball slasher/cutters. With more ball movement, they should get some easy baskets.
