So my dad tried to tell me that this years KU team isn't as good as last years team. I called BS. You can argue semantics about defense player vs player experience, whatever. But the bottom line is this team locked up the best conference in the nation with three games left. Last years team had to share the title with a good not great KSU team.
Am I off base here?

When this team cares enough to play hard, they're better than last year. When they don't, we've seen what they are. I think you could make a legitimate argument either way, but I'll take this team with a healthy Embiid over last year. Despite not having that consistent competitive fire, they're just capable of a higher ceiling of play. Both teams don't rate up with '08 or '10 for me (or even the team that Tyshawn/TRob willed to the FF in '12), though.
