With all the craziness of the trade deadline, I thought it would be fun to play a little game to get our minds off of it.

Here's how it works: Construct the best pro team out of current players who attended the same college. Do it from memory; don't cheat and look it up. I'll start with an easy one.

Arizona. I'll have to go small ball.

1. Bibby, Arenas
2. Terry, Stoudamire (Salim)
3. Iguodala, Adams
4. Jefferson, Walton
5. Frye

Ooh, I forgot Walton.

This has to be with guys who are still playing in the NBA or it becomes a college team's best players of all times.

Oh no, the gate is being opened.

Jeez, you're hard to please. Some of us support college teams who have sucked for a while now. This ain't fair.

Okay, forget Notre Dame. How do I do my other college team, ASU, in the pros? Same problem, not quite as bad. I got Eddie House and who else?

Rudy Gay was never a Jayhawk, he played for UConn. Try Darrell Arthur or Julian Wright instead.

I think the Texas team is most solid top to bottom,

Syracuse

PG- Jason Hart
SG- Demetris Nichols
SF- Carmelo Anthony
PF- Hakim Warrick
C- Etan Thomas (is he still playing)

Donte Green off the bench at the 2-4 6-11 dude that can hit from 3.

I attended ASU and I am a diehard Sun Devil fan, so tell me about it. :)

I also came up with Eddie House. Hmm. My mind drew a blank after that. I forgot Ike as well.

ASU sadly doesn't have enough, but after this year they'll have 4 guys in the NBA:

1. House
2. Harden
3. no small forwards (though Awvee Storey had a cup of coffee with the Bucks last year)
4. Diogu/Pendergraph
5. no centers

Duke
1. J.J Redick
2. Luol Deng
3. Elton Brand
4. Shane Battier
5. Grant Hill

I think you mean:

1. Redick
2. Deng
3. Hill
4. Battier
5. Brand
