Message: [QUOTE="orange2win, post: 1729045, member: 849"] Some folks here take umbrage at the notion that the team with the most MBA Pros wins the tournament nearly every year. They think it is more complicated than that. I have in front of me 20 years of finals data going back to 1996. On only 3 occasions has the team with the most NBA pros not won! The three teams pulling an upset were: - 2014 U Conn - 2003 SU - 1999 UConn. It may have happened again yesterday, but we will not know for a year or two. How many NBA Pros on average does it take to win the NCAA tournament? Going back even further to 1989, it computes to 4.4 Pros/team. That's a lot. Think of the last SU team to meet this quota. By the way, the most NBA Pros on any team was Duke 1992 with 8. [/QUOTE]
