Bledsoe could be a real wild card in that game. He matches up favorably with all our guards; too quick for the Twins, but still small and agile enough that Tyler couldn't disrupt him as much.
2010 VS 2015 Wildcats201 Who ya got?? and Why?
- Thread starter TheDog1967
- Start date
the 2010 at that time was no where near as good as this 2015 squad and to say other wise is just not looking at facts . Now Wall and Cousins are more talented then anyone on this year's team but we are talking about a team not 2 players. That team lost to WVU in the elite 8 and this team wouldn't let that happen to them in a million years .
2015 79 2010 70
Booker and Ulis wear out 2010 from 3 hitting a combined 11 threes
Cousins dominates with 25 pts and 13 rebounds in a losing effort.

2010 much, much more star power.
2015 wins no question.
2015 is the better team by a really comfortable margin. Notable things that go into that:
more disciplined outside shooting (2010 was worse at selection and planning than they were at shooting. They had no Booker and no shot creator either, but they still averaged over 40% from outside as a team many nights before conference play. They could have harnessed that with discipline...and experience)much more in-system experience Cal is much better at using guys who don't fit textbook DDMO (it is a real thing)lower talent ceiling but higher talent baselinedepth
Team goes an awfully long way in CBB: why it's my favorite sport.
Good thread.

78 vs 84 vs 96 vs 10 vs 12 vs 15, would all be pretty good games/series.
In the 10 vs 15, I see it going this way.
Wall would be taking Andrew off the dribble into the lane easily (or using his size to get inside on Ulis), but would keep running into our bigs & missing more than he makes. His best success would come from kicking it back out to a open Bledsoe. Cousins would dominate at first, but then get frustrated by the 2 seven-footers on him when he gets the ball, and find himself on the bench with 2 fouls midway through the first half. As good as Patterson is/was, he did get his shot blocked a lot, and that would certainly continue in this game. At the other end, I don't see much more success, where the 10 team was as good a rebounding team as the 15 team so they wouldn't be getttng as many 2nd chance points. 15 team wins 62-59 as both teams struggle scoring.

Awesome threat, love the back and forth. Isn't it great that we have this type of conversation and we aren't even talk about the team that won the national championship?

Oh how I love when folks like you nitpick a post, for verbiage and such......What a sad existence....
YOU ARE CORRECT the term that I used was not used in the proper manner. THANK YOU SO MUCH for pointing it out. I hope that my poor choice in wording did not steal your joy from your day. I look forward to you review of future posts, I need all the help I can get, because sentence structure, punctuation, and so on is vitally important to me on a FREAKING MESSAGE BOARD.
