Let’s Revisit: Wall’s 2010 team vs AD’s 2012 team

2012, easily.
2010 was fun, but honestly, overrated. They had awe inspiring physical ability but they were often sloppy and undisciplined, didn't have much perimeter shooting, and benefitted from a kind of fluke easy schedule (the 2 big non-conference wins, UConn, and UNC, came against teams that missed the NCAA tournament that year). They also won a ton of very, very close games. 2012 just didn't play many close games, and got no major breaks in their tournament run but closed the deal anyway (despite how tight Cal's butt got in the 2nd half of the title game).

2010 was more explosive and better rebounders. 2012 was better defensively and shooting the 3. 2010 may win the game because Cal would be too stubborn to zone the 2010 team.
If Jodie Meeks had stayed one more year this wouldn't be a contest. He would've provided what the 2010 lacked the most, 3 point shooting.
I loved the 09 as they restored the legacy of UK that kinda fell off during the early 2000s but 12 is the better team
Im assuming OP seen the same interview I just seen where John Wall was saying his team wins without a doubt.
I get they had the sexier players individually but it's a team sport and there's a reason 2012 won the title and never really got threatened in the tournament.
He claimed Boogie would shut down Amthony Davis but im not sure hes able to comprehend how dominant Davis was. He kept talking about hiw Cousins shut down the Mississippi state guy that lead the nation in blocked shots.
He really tried to compare Davis and I think the guys name was vernardo or something like that. Hearing cousins and Wall speak sometimes makes me question their intelligence.
Said Doron wasnt a dog and Eric Bledsoe was. Doron lamb was one of the smoothest sgs kentucky has ever had. He was a beast of a college player. Pure stroking it.

And he didn’t have to worry about stupid lineups because he pretty much couldn’t. Lol
