I have a huge match-up edge with the starters. As great a defender as Rodman is, he has no shot to cover McHale, none at all. McHale would eat him alive down low. Rodman then gives zip on the offensive end. I love Bird, but it's a terrible match-up for him as well. Larry could typically shoot over SF's who were 3"-4" shorter(Dr J, Wilkes, Pressey, etc), Durant is 3" taller plus more athletic. On the other hand, Bird would get torched by Durant. Wade is good, Kobe is simply better. Nash gives me a great shooter, and Ewing is a great defender to throw at Hakeem, plus he gets help from McHale, as Rodman can't shoot.
I also like my 3rd quarter team by a lot as well, and think quarter one is pretty close

This one is extremely close for me.

1st Quarter I lean UK slightly. His offensive firepower is really great. Having Irving, plus Peja and LA to stretch the court, opens it up for Penny in the post. I think King helps to offset a lot of this having Peja guard him back, but I like the flow of the team a lot more. I also really love the combo of Kyrie and Penny. Since Penny can also act as a ball handler, it allows Kyrie to do his thing as a scorer.

2nd Quarter I think it's as close to a wash as you get. You have Frazier who's an elite defensive guard, guarding Nash. Wade and Kobe are both elite scorers. Durant and Bird. McHale has Rodman to deal with when he's on offense. Hakeem would still do work though against Ewing.

3rd Quarter is close, but I lean Shane slightly. Harden and Mullin aren't plus defenders on his wing and would have a hell of time trying to guard Nique. Stockton and Webber would be a really good P&R combo. I love Payton defensively next to Harden, but not so much offensively. Payton was a guy who was better with the ball in his hands more and good in the post using his size. They would effectively have to take turns using the ball as primary handler.

4th Quarter is again really close.

Based on the fire power of UK's 1st quarter team, I have to think they build a lead with the 2-4 quarters holding it.

My vote is for UK.

I got UK barely, although I'm not sure about running 2 PGs, especially when one is Kevin McHale.

I like UKs half group slightly better than Shane's 2 quarter teams... UK
