500 to win. I'll break down points later if needed.

I like 500s first 2 Quarters more than UKs first 2 and then UKs 2nd half better than 500s second half...

I think i will make my line look like this... and i would appreciate it if nobody said "YO MILK YOU ARE MAKING UP NUMBERS"

UK-23-28-31-20=101
500-36-30-25-7=98

Math, its whats for breakfast...

500 - 30 26 33 29 = 118

Damn this was close... I didn't know who'd win with the scores so wild... That 1st quarter for 500 was big but UKs 2nd quarter for me is top 3 group in all the draft IMO... Moses and Cowens down there is pretty awesome IMO... I hated it when I saw them in our match... Too much Magic in the 4th... You can't hide Lillard on anybody either, had there been a solid option there I would have leaned Duncan...

I won't lie, I really like your perspective in these... More times than not I agree with your analysis, but I'm curious why you have 500 in the second... I think his defense with Cheeks and Squid is awesome and Mutombo down low makes scoring for Iceman and Goodrich tough in fact I see them missing a ton of shots but with Moses and Cowens it's almost like a positive for them to miss... Those 2 can just play volleyball on either side of the glass with Melo at the 4... I also think Melo gets it going there, just not enough IMO was all...

I don't like Goodrich at the point, mainly. I gave Mo a huge advantage because of this. Probably too much, considering Melo is a bit out of position as well. I think Melo can mask it a bit better, but Goodrich will have to run the offense and as more of a SG his whole career, I thought it would cause problems.

Mo would have a HUGE advantage over Goodrich at PG? Goodrich played primary PG for 2 seasons, parts of several others. His best season at PG he averaged 24 points and 6 assists. Cheeks best numbers....in his entire career....15 points and 9 assists. Come on. How about Melo trying to guard Cowens, a far bigger mismatch at power forward?

Melo's post defense is far better than his perimeter D. I've seen him guard bigger players with his strength no problem. Cowens is only an inch taller anyways and Melo is a hell of a lot stronger. Cowens guarding him is the bigger mismatch

We'll have to agree to disagree on that one my friend. Cowens went head to head with the biggest centers in the league and usually came out on top. He would abuse Melo in the post and own the boards

And Melo has gone against the best wing defenders and abused them. How would Cowens have a shot out there? Melo has spent a lot more time defending the post than Cowens has the perimeter.
