Pickup Game

by Coltrane

This is in reference to the Stanford-UConn Women’s Championship Game post.   If the Stanford men’s team were to play the UConn women’s team in a pickup game the matchups would look something like this:

Starter Size PPG   Starter Size PPG (Conf)
Landry Fields 6-7 G/F 22.0   Maya Moore 6-0 F 18.1
Jack Trotter 6-9 F 6.8   Tina Charles 6-4 C 18.9
Jeremy Green 6-4 G 16.6   Tiffany Hayes 5-10 G 8.9
Drew Shiller 6-0 G 7.5   Kalana Green 5-10 G 11.2
Jarret Mann 6-3 PG 5.8   Caroline Doty 5-10 G 6.2
             
Bench       Bench    
Andrew Zimmermann 6-9 F 4.4   Kelly Faris 5-11 G 3.4
Emmanuel Igbinosa 6-2 G 3.9   Megan Gardler 6-0 F 4.3
Da’Veed Dildy 6-4 G 1.1   Lorin Dixon 5-4 G 3.5
        Kaili McLaren 6-2 F 3.7

The UConn women have two players on their team over six feet tall.  They’d be giving up 5-6 inches per player.  If this pickup game happened in real life the shorter team would insist on mixing up the teams.  No contest.
