Like both the 1st halves. Pretty even.

I’ll take my 2nd half bc of my outside shooting and bc of Melo

 

[CitySushi]

I think Femur has the edge in the first half, but I think Shane's 2nd is enough to make up for it. Just think his balance in the 2nd half will come into play.

Gonna lean Shane by a really narrow margin.

 

[CitySushi]

TBH, this should really be the championship match.

I intentionally abstained hoping the others would pick as I'm effectively choosing my opponent.

So I'm taking Shane to win the West to play my ECF Cavs 2015 team. Let's hope for no injuries

I initially took femur thinking he could build a big enough lead but that second half team for Shane with some serious matchup issues would probably overcome it

Caveat here

Russ is definitely guarding Jordan

 

[Stakesarehigh]

With Russ attempting to control Jordan I do like my team's second half matchup better than femur's...maybe it's just blind homerism though. Davis/Hakeem is a hell of a tandem.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Although in today's game you'd just zone Jordan anyway mostly. Depends on rules here I suppose.

I wonder how Nique/Mullin went down? They didn't play much though. Can't believe they went with Mullin over Nique for the dream team imo.

AD/Hakeem is an insane duo. If only you had someone other than Russ at the point I think your team is definitely the best, still top 2. RW is a hell of a player but his team has to perfectly cater to him to make it a good fit imo. Either way it's going to be a good matchup and I won't break it down until the matchup is set lol.

I'm an admitted Russ homer. KD has broke my NBA fandom heart by becoming a little bitch. Loved OKC

They were fun to watch, obviously the W's are too even though KD is puss and Draymond at this point is a bench player/drama queen. Add in Cousins and it's a shitshow. But Russ/KD were extremely fun to watch it's too bad he had to leave even though he had a great team around him, one win away and he gave up. I am not counting on it but hoping PG3 and Russ can make it to the Finals this year.

He was efficient enough mid range to exploit a zone D - he'd find open space and collapse the zone imo - especially if he has Nash and Mullin to kick out to. Zone would be a terrible idea against this squad imo

Yeah I agree, this team would tear up a zone. Most of these great teams would tear up a zone especially if they have perimeter shooters
