I like doing the scoring this way, I honestly don't know who wins until I add the scores.

I think the game is won in the 1st quarter then tied in the second... I think it's obvious Dumars is going to guard Curry in the 3rd and Pip gives me the win over Peja... 4th is pretty much locked... Jordan does Jordan things Magic does Magic things...

Likewise. It was a brilliant idea by a superior intellect

With steph curry being the 4th best PG of all time, that is a huge advantage on line 3...

I don't like Bruce Bowen in the 4th line at all for WLK, the 4th line should be filled with either studs or decent foul shooters... I feel like WLK said, I have Michael Jordan so I will just throw in my weak players to play with him... And I think that was a huge mistake... especially when facing Magic and then some other good players...

So I have

UK winning line 2-3-4 but getting destroyed on 1

I guess my line would look like

UK-18-25-25-30=98
WLK- 30-20-20-27=97


UK wins by one point

It looks like his plan for the 4th is to load up on Defense, and Bowen made a career as the original 3 and D player. I think Pippen would have been better there, but you take him out of Q3 and he would have been destroyed. I think he had to pick his poison on that one.

I agree, but that is only good if you have the lead going into the 4th... Something that really hasn't been talked about here but should is that the 4th quarter is when teams shoot the most foul shots... So now lets say that WLK has the lead in the 4th, UK is just going to foul Bowen and put him on the line... That will minimize Michael as well...

I will never understand how someone can hit 40% from 3, but 58% from the line

Here's my last word on the game... Without posting game plans and coverages voters are left with their own imagination to see the game as they see it... I won't argue that Bowens is a terrible free throw shooter, I will however argue that he gets hack-a-Bowened the whole 4th... You realize after 6 fouls if a team has no subs every foul is a tech so unless everybody is fouling him somebody is going to get techs... Which means Jordan can shoot the tech and Bowen shoots his 2 shots... Anyway, things like Dumars guarding Curry and Baron guarding Hornicek... Bowen, Jordan and Porter (6'3") will take turns guarding Magic doesn't get recognized... I wish there were ways to incorporate more info into these... That or I need to stop thinking strategy and grab BPA and play it that way...
