how many games would they win in the NBA? I'm being serious as well.

My thoughts are 15 to 20 especially if the home games were at Chappel Hill.

They would win a couple. Its retarded to say that over 82 games or however many that they could not win a single game. Even if it was because of catching a team on their 7th road game, etc.

Okay 15 to 20 might be a stretch, but come on, double digits? Their team hasn't even been close to healthy this year. They will be awesome when healthy. I'm also not a UNC fan, but they have 7 or 8 NBA players on their team and Chapel Hill would allow them a huge home court advantage.

One of the most ridiculous threads I've read in a long time.

The answer is ZERO.

They have three guys who weren't good enough to be lottery picks last season. Hansbrough, Lawson, and Ellington are all much better suited for college ball. All three will be bench players in the NBA at best.

So you have three guys who would ride the bench on any NBA team, yet you expect them to field a competitive starting 5 to win a single NBA game, let alone 15??

Please.

Couldnt have said it better. They are very good college players but they will be garbage in the NBA. There is a reason Hansbrough has stayed in college all 4 years ya know....he is NOT an NBA player.

I also do not think UNC is this amazing team everyone is making them out to be. They WILL NOT win the Championship and I think they will lose some games in the regular season.

Notre Dame will be the 1st test UNC has faced all year and Notre Dame is more than capable of beating them. Would love to see UNC fall to the Irish to put a foot in the mouth of all the UNC lovers.

Yea, I was going to say... Almost every bench player in the NBA could start at ANY college team. Just think of the bench comparisons.

UNC would get abused by the worst team in the NBA. They are not anywhere near having the strength and conditioning that NBA players have. Who is UNC going to match up with NBA 7 footers? Not to mention the huge difference in rules with the shot clock shorter, offensive 3 seconds, and the NBA 3 pt line.....unless of course you want NBA to play college rules against UNC where theyd just camp their bigs down low and take away everything inside....not to mention the sharp shooters having a field day going back to the college 3 pt line......anyway you slice it, they would get wrecked.

This is just like the argument that USC fans throw out there with their football team. "How many games do you think we would win in the NFL?" This has the same answer ZERO.

UNC is the best team in the nation and has a great chance to go undefeated. UCONN is the second best team!

AirPortis...just accept the fact that UNC is the best team in the country. I don't know why you can't accept it.

I wouldn't be shocked at all if they went undefeated. Their 2nd unit is good enough to be a top 25 team.

Why is it? Illinois was a prayer 3pointer away from going into the national title game undefeated. I don't think UNC with this years team will be in much of that predicament.

Comical? Hardly...The schedule isn't so tough outside of Michigan St. As long as we take care of Wake at Wake, put it in the bagggg.
