Of course we'd always assume that the average guys would be coached at least, to know good strategies to beat the pro team.

I think the NBA team would lose. Even if they are average and you are nine inches taller than them, 10 guys defending in you in basketball has got to be impossible to beat.
If the football and hockey players were playing for keeps, they'd have their opponents thinned out pretty quickly.
An interesting and idiotic discussion. I like it.
