NCAA D1 Level Comparison
Adam Cadee? Yeh, I've heard Jason's brother isn't that good. Would probably get smashed if he played Kentucky

Can someone tell me when Clint Steindl became an all-star? You kept referring to him as an all-star, or a "bonafide" NBL all star if you will, but I can't find any evidence of it?He played in the last NBL All-Star game as an injury replacement.


Same guys who prob thought Perth & Melbournes imports were going to dominate because of their credentials.

Wilbekin came to the NBL virtually straight out of college, and it was a very good program he was in. The NBL has some very good players and we play according to what we have and how the coaches adapt to the style of game here.
The best US college team at the minute (Kentuky) consists mostly of freshmen, who will only be there for one year then go to the NBA, therefore making this comparison difficult.
If we were to say that Kentuky could keep their best team together for a couple of years and get to about Sophmore or junior age, they would smash any NBL team you would like to send against them.
The NBL has possibly got size, maturity and strength in certain areas that would give them a chance against younger 19-20 year olds, but as Wilbekin has showed, if they play a college team of seniors that have the skill and athleticism of a Kentuky, it would be a one horse race IMHO...


Should add that teams like Kentucky and Duke this year are probably competitive with the Euroleague D1 sides.
