UK in a very close physical battle.

Two tough teams. I think 500 has some great players, but can't match up. Love Stockton. No way he can handle AI. Love Mullin, but at 6'-8" Dominique can guard him, no way Mullin can check him. King would light him up too. I also think Webber is a tough matchup. Ewing is Certainly better than Carroll, but he won't score 40. I also like King, Schrempf and Sabonis matchups for me off bench.

This is a tough one because I think a slight edge in overall players goes to UK, however I agree with 500... AI and antique are the exact same player... Give them the ball and move... Chris was best used in Sac when he was almost a point forward in the Princeton offense surrounded by shooters and cutters... While 500 has a team of guys who can all have an impact within the offense... Stockton can PnR with both bigs and both bigs can hit the J as well giving him that. You can also just feed Ewing who could also pass 2apg for his career... Slight edge to UK on bench but I don't think the player edges are dominant enough, and 500 has some player dominant as well as a more cohesive unit...

500 - 119
UK - 112

I'd probably put Davis on AI and Stockton on Petrovich but Davis couldn't stop Iverson either but he'd do better than Stockton because of his length. Obviously Iverson and Nique can score with the best of them but like Ritz there is only one ball.

I love the back court players on UK's team. As much as I loved the Jermaine O'Neal pick I hated the Stephon Crybury pick! I think Stockton to Nance would be pretty damn good. I don't think much of Ewing to be honest but trading him probably cost me a trip to the semi-final.

I think I had these teams ranked 1st and 3rd so not much difference at all. I am leaning 500 in this one.

108 - 104
