Game 1 - I think it is a pretty good matchup. I think they pull it out with a little more offense as much as I like that matchup for Dirk. Femur/WLK
Game 2 - I got us winning this one. Shane/Ritz
Game 3 - as much as I like TD in this matchup for them I think our group would have more chemistry and ths offense and defense would flow better. RW and PG isn’t working too well as we see. Shane/Ritz
Game 4 - I think we take this one pretty easily. Shane/Ritz

Shane/Ritz in 4

Game 1 - WLK/Femur. Shane's team lacks enough scoring IMO. Wallace and Iguodala are more of defensive specialists than scorers. To top that off WLK/Femur's perimeter defense is amazing with Isiah, Dumars and Pippen, as well as Gasol in the middle who's a former DPOY.

Game 2 - Shane/Ritz. Pretty easy to make this decision. Too much talent and firepower as well as a dynamic inside out combo with guys who compliment each other.

Game 3 - WLK/Femur by a hair. As much as I loathe Westbrook's game, I think he'll be able to defer to a Duncan based offense. Duncan and Sheed make a really good defensive combo, and offensively both can stretch the court with Sheed all the way out to 3. Russ, Worthy and PG on the break is pretty crazy too. I like Shane's combo of Pau and Webber as passers from the big positions. The reason I lean WLK/Femur is because their team has much better overall defense.

Game 4 - Shane/Ritz by a hair. Love the inside out combo of Hakeem and Kobe. I really like Yao and Walton though as a big passing combo, but Shane and Ritz have two guys who could guard them. These two teams I think would be really evenly matched. TP/Hardaway kind of cross cancel each other out. Kobe has the edge on Wade. Barry has a huge edge on Rice. Reed and Walton kind of cancel each other out. Hakeem holds a big edge on Yao. I lean Shane/Ritz because of overall team defense.

Game 5 - This game is so close. If WLK/Femur would have gotten a shooter and floor spacer here instead of Cooper, I think this would be a runaway in their favor. But the lack of perimeter scoring could be a problem with two guys in Oscar and Hill who are mostly mid range and in, centered around an offense with Kareem in the middle doing work kind of clogs the lane a bit. I feel like Shane/Ritz team has the perfect balance as probably the best most cohensive lineup that anyone's put out yet. Offensively it has the best inside out balance with interior scoring and perimeter shooting. Great passing back court. Also it's an amazing defensive squad overall.

But, in the end there's too much of a talent disparity at the top. Oscar and Kareem on their own should be able to win this game. Add in a prime Grant Hill who was the original Lebron and that's a dynamic combo.


Long story short: I got WLK/Femur here in 5.

Long story short: I got WLK/Femur here in 5.

For Game 1 I don’t disagree but I think the lack of scoring is overblown. Cousy, Pistol Pete and Dirk is enough. Iggy is in his prime was the Sixers go-to scorer and he has a jumpshot, not a great one. I think the lineup doesn’t lack scoring but I favor WLK/Femur bc of the balance offense/defense.

Good assessment and I can’t really disagree.
