No offense, I like how you broke it down but did you give my 4th quarter 26 with Jason Terry guarding MJ...? I won't complain just confused...

I like milks first two quarters a lot more, third is close. WLK has a way better 4th, but is it enough to dig out of the hole he would be in? I think Milk has enough offense there to hang on. Milk

this is what i thought too... that i had better than him q1-q3 and he was better Q4... but i don't know who plays well with who... i can only know what the stats give me...

My 1st quarter defense is outrageous... If it weren't for KAJ it would be bad... 2nd quarter I have 2 will score at will in Durant and Thompson... Baron Davis is a a great pg and defensive bigs are crazy... Nance had the most blocks by any player not a Center and Zo was a 2x DPOY...

 

[wlk3]

You got 6'4" Cliff Hagan guarding 6'10" Durant 4x scoring champ... I see defense is already being ignored by some...

I have said this to you many times... I really love how you sell your team... You have an advantage against me here because i have no clue how to sell my team... But you talk about defensive bigs... I am not sure but I am pretty damn good there too... then you say in the lineup cliff hagan is guarding durant... But you don't mention that Baron Davis is guarding chris Paul... Davis was not a good defender, and Paul was MUCH better...


Honestly, the way i saw it was that my 4 PGs were better than your 4... My big men were better than your big men...

The only best player on the court i thought you had was michael... I thought in every other matchup i had the best player on the court...

I understand, and have made the point that i know nothing about basketball, and have no clue how some players would play with each other... But i don't see how everyone is picking against my team... you bring up defense, and i thought i had you there too...

But again, i can only base my analysis on stats... i really haven't watched basketball regularly since late 1990's early 2000s, and then i was too young to really appreciate the nuances of the NBA game...

It's harder than it should be it would be easier to show side by side so I'll do that but wow lol...

 

[MilkSpiller22]

i take back the best player on the court comment...

 

[wlk3]

I'm not going with straight head 2 head only but I didn't post it how I saw it in the way too...

1st
PG - Dennis Johnson > PG - Mark Price
This matchup is not really close... DJ had the speed to stay with Price defensively and I'll add a 6x 1st team all-D... He was also known as a PG who liked to post smaller PGs which is one of the main reasons I brought Laimbeer in on this group to clear the post... However KAJ would go out he'd probably guard Oakley, either way Price is very over matched in this spot...

SG - Joe Dumars > SG - Tracy McGrady
Joe Dumars would probably be guarding Dantley, but I didn't say it mostly because I didn't know I'd face you... Artest would slow McGrady down much more IMO simple by size but Dumars is also a 4x 1st Team all-D and almost 20 a game scorer... He's also HOF, McGrady is all scoring and he'll have trouble doing that with whomever guards him of the 2...

SF - Ron Artest < SF - Adrian Dantley
I think Artest would do a much better job here than some... Dantley was a bully just like Artest only Artest is 2 inches and 55 pounds on him... Artest was also a 20+ point scorer when he was DPOY and getting 2x 1st team all-D... Dantley would have the same problems as Price... These were my 2 main post options with Dumars and Laimbeer spreading things, Oakley was to keep KAJ honest and get rebounds...

PF - Charles Oakley = PF - Horace Grant
This is a wash and both play the same role... I think Grant is slightly better offensively Oakley slightly better defensively...

C - Bill Laimbeer < KAJ
This isn't close... It's why you beat me in this quarter... I'd try to help some but he would give you a lot of options if I help too much so I'd have Laimbeer play as physical as he could and foul enough not to get kicked out...
