Remember a few days ago when Charles Barkley said that the Kentucky Wildcats could beat an NBA team like the Bobcats, Raptors, or Wizards? Well, Maryland coach Gary Williams has said that Kentucky can beat Washington.
Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy was asked about these comments and thought it was absurd to think UK can beat an NBA team.
Even as bad as the Wizards are, Van Gundy says they have more experience.
"Could anything happen on a one-night thing? I mean, I suppose, you have major upsets all the time. So, maybe, but it'd be rare and in a series it'd be a joke," Van Gundy said. "It wouldn't be close. That's just the way it is. John Calipari's got a lot of talent; he does not have 13 NBA players. He just doesn't. And even if those guys all are, they're all NBA rookies. I mean, when has that ever been a success in the NBA? So, no, they're not going to win."
I completely agree with Stan on this one. He's got a great point.
