Make a starting lineup for basketball that would challenge UCLA's. These arguments are based solely on what the player did in college- not the pros.

G- Gail Goodrich
G- Reggie Miller
F- Marques Johnson
F- Lew Alcindor (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar)
C- Bill Walton

Alright, I'll go with yours:

Coach- John Wooden- 10 National Championships in 12 years- Also, won 7 Straight

Gail Goodrich- Finished career as UCLA's all time leading score, as well as being a 2 time All-American as well as Co-Player of the year in 65. Goodrich and won 2 national championships.

Reggie Miller- Although he never played on a reat team, finished 2nd in career points behind only the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Marques Johnson- First ever John R. Wooden award winner, given to nation's best player and also recieved the USBWA College Player of the Year, becoming the first to do so.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar- A career 26.3 career average, one of the greatest to every play. Still holds the record for most field goals, points in a season, highest season scoring averages.

Bill Walton- Recieved the James E. Sullivan Award for best amateur athlete, USBWA College Player of the Year, and the Naismith College Player of the Year, get this, 3 years in a row.

Although North Carolina has great players, their all time lineup cannot match up to UCLA.

Obviously I'll give you MJ. That's 1-0 in favor of you.

Coach- It's John Wooden. 10 Championships in 12 years speaks for itself. 1-1

Reggie vs Vince: Interesting. I don't understand your argument though- you said Reggie score more but then put Vince down for more points.Anyway, Reggie, in his final two seasons, averaged over 22 points per game (over 25 junior year). This is debatable. Heck, I'll give this to you. However, still debatble. 2-1 you.

Johnson vs Worthy: Although Worthy had a decent career, he was no where neae Johnson. Johnson was awarded the National Player of the year (two seperate awards), easily taking Worthy. 2-2.

Jamison vs Abdul-Jabbar: Jamison was good, don't get me wrong. He was awarded with the Naismith award for most outstanding player in his junior year. However, Abdul-Jabbar led the UCLA Bruins in scoring 3 years in a row, and won a National Championship all 3 years. He was awarded with the USBWA Player of the year award twice, and the Naismith award once. Advantage: Me. 3-2.

Walton vs Perkins: Not even a contest. Walton won the USBWA Award and Naismith award 3 years in a row in 72, 73, and 74. 4-2 Me.

UNC is great, but UCLA takes it.
