SF - Tayshaun Prince vs Peja Stojakovic
PF - Horace Grant vs Lamar Odom
C - Tyson Chandler vs Marcus Camby

To start off EHB has a very solid team. I think my bigs match-up as good as you can match-up against these two great bigs. Webber has the size and skills and plays just like Timmy. Timmy gets the edge defensively. And Hakeem, arguably one of the best defensive centers of all-time will battle Wilt to the end.
Now the real advantage is my frontcourt IMO.

Mark Price was a great shooter but he cant defend Paul and Paul can still shoot the ball. I think this is a huge mismatch and Paul can make plays. Now Kobe, I am assuming Pierce will be on him who is an underrated defender but it still doesnt bode well for him or Monroe. Paul and Webber in the pick-in-roll will be a key. Eddie Jones will get playing time as well so Kobe can switch on Pierce and Jones will guard Monroe at times who cant shoot the 3.

Now defensively, I having 3 great frontcourt defenders helps me in this matchup. Iggy can limit Pierce and Kobe and Paul have big advantages with athleticsm and size. His bigs are great but my frontcourt decides this one particularly with CP3 and the Black Mamba.

I feel like our benches are both pretty good. I have more defense and offense in the frontcourt IMO.

The rim will never be left unprotected with Duncan, Wilt, and Camby. And I have plenty of shooting to keep any of you from crashing in on Wilt or Duncan in the post - unless you want to just give a bunch of elite shooters the green light. On the bench I have perimeter defense, shooting, and rim protection.

I think Hakeem and Wilt play to a standstill, but Kobe and Paul's advantages are greater than Duncan's. I like EHB's bench better, but not by enough to make up elsewhere.

I vote Shane
