How the hell do we have 8 votes in game 1 and 4 votes in game 2?

I see team C stronger at SG, SF and C.


Benches pretty close to even.

I agree on SG but that's all.

PG and PF are team D in a landslide...

Just my opinion...

Ha! 2 and 3 in my rankings and it was a homer pick...lol sorry Nos, but he has Kobe and was 2 in my rankings... Seriously though my thoughts are exactly what Trojan said...

PG and PF for sure. The difference between SG and C are pretty big too. Overall, very close matchup.

I think this may be the most evenly matched of all 1st round games. Imagine how much fun it would be to see really happen.

Two AWESOME backup point gaurds in this matchup. Marc Gasol is very underrated. Tim Duncan is possibly the best power forward in history. (Malone is the man.). Tough call here.

I cannot agree with C being a big difference. Gasol averages 13 and 8 Cousins averages 18 and 10

 

[Nosferatu]

But I do agree it is very close and IMO the best matchup in the 1st round.

Gasol is a better defender and passer. He isn't relied on for scoring like Cousins is.

 

[Nosferatu]

Gasol is a better defender and passer. He isn't relied on for scoring like Cousins is.

Better defender and passer doesn't make him way better, different players who do different things but he is not way better. Hes also surrounded by a better team which means other teams don't key on him.

cough Dirk

 

[ehb5]

Parker > Lowry (by a fair amount)
Kobe > Harden (Kobe could drop 50)
George > Deng (close)
Duncan > West (not close)
Gasol > Cousins (close

bench

close call as well. D i felt was slightly better.


Good matchup.

 

[Pack 500]

Better defender and passer doesn't make him way better, different players who do different things but he is not way better. Hes also surrounded by a better team which means other teams don't key on him.

Also have to factor in the jerk/attitude problem with cousins. That would probably swing me towards Gasol. I don't think his Memphis team is overly talented and he gets the most out of it

Swing you towards Gasol does not equal way better which was my point to begin with...
