If you could take a top 12 from the Big 12 and put them on your team, who would they be? It could be based on talent, stats, favoritism, etc...Sort of a de-facto All-Conference.

Could they beat the top 12 from other conference(s)?

I'd implement a 2-guard lineup with a big wing (sf) and two big bodied posts...you can implement whatever you'd like i.e. 3 smaller guards, whatever.

My 12:

PG
Diante Garrett
Jacob Pullen

SG
Marcus Denmon
Cory Higgins

SF
Alec Burks
Jordan Hamilton
Khris Middleton

PF
Marcus Morris
Tristan Thompson
Marshall Moses

PF/C
Perry Jones III
Markieff Morris
 
PG: Lance Jeter, Diante Garrett
SG: Alec Burks, Jacob Pullen
SF: Jordan Hamilton, Cory Higgins
PF: Marcus Morris, Markieff Morris
PF: Perry Jones, Ricardo Ratliffe

Reserves: Marcus Denmon, Brian Diaz
 
PG:
Jacob Pullen
BJ Holmes (minues the hideous mustache of course)

SG:
Cory Joseph
Cory Higgins
Scott Christopherson

3:
Alec Burks
Cade Davis

4:
Gary Johnson (love his game; glad he graduates)
Markieff Morris
Andrew Fitzgerald

5:
Justin Safford (love his game; sweet stroke for a big guy)
Andre Almeida (gotta have a big fellow who can box out)

Edit: Forgot about Corey Joseph. Would rather have him than Garrett.
 
Wonder how this would change if you had to take one from each team, and still have the same position requirements.

PG
Roberson - TT
Garrett - ISU

SG
Pullen - KSU
Denmon - MU
Davis - OU

SF
Burks - CU
Middleton - A&M


PF
Thompson - UT
Moses - OSU
Diaz - NU

C
Jones III - BU
Marcus Morris - KU

That's my quick version.

That's my fast version.

Still need an ISU player. I'd probably stick Vanderbeken on that team, just to stretch the floor a bit.

I'd put Garrett at PG, take off Jeter and add Diaz.
 
Taking a different approach I'm going with one from each school and trying to build the best team.

PG Dougus Balbay (Texas) (Runs the offense)
SG Jacob Pullen (Kansas St) (Primary scoring option)
SF Khris Middleton (Texas A&M) (Do it all SF)
PF Laurence Bowers (Missouri) (Provides good defense and rebounding)
C Marcus Morris (Kansas) (Secondary Scoring option)

Reserves
PG Diante Garrett (Back up point)
SG Lace Dunn (Baylor) (Instant Shooting and offense off the bench)
SG Cade Davis (Oklahoma) (Provides energy and can be a hot shooter)
PF Marshall Moses (Oklahoma St) (Rebounder/enforcer type)
C Jorge Brian Diaz (Nebraska) (Gives the team some scoring and size)
F Andre Roberson (Colorado) (Good rebounder and athletic ability)
PG John Roberson (3rd option at the point, not a bad shooter from deep)

Might not be the most talented unit, but it has a good blend of stars and role players. Definitely would be a team I would want to go to war with.

If I had to take one from each team this would be mine also.
