Default Special Sklansky Question: Arenas vs Duke

How many points would Arenas score against this years Duke team (currently ranked #10) if he was playing on an average Div-I team (that had ample time to practice with each other)?

Duke sucks, he would score at will.

This would be interesting against a good college basketball tema.

Assuming he was out to score at every possession? 75+

While Paulus isn't great, I'm assuming they would use DeMarcus Nelson on Arenas with alot of special doubles coming from the wings of Scheyer, McClure, and Henderson.

This is simply not true.

So many rookies struggle for PT in the NBA because of failure to understand defensive rotations in the rotating defense that so many teams run.

I understand you appreciate the college game more, but your comments are inane.


It would be a little harder for Gil to score against a team like Florida that has good perimeter defenders and a good shot blocker like Noah.

THOUGHT OF A HUGE PROBLEM!!!!

In college you can slide in under the hoop and take a charge. This would really hurt his ability to get to the line, but I still think he could score in the 65-70 range.

How many points would the Phoenix Suns score against the Duke team if they were to play one game verses each other?

Who would be the leading scorer for the game?
