I will stop grabbing pussy if you agree not to hammer your cell phone...Yeah like we haven't done that in the last day
So you have Dominique and LBJ basically a push. Earlier you had MJ on LBJ(good luck) and now you have MJ guarding Durant and ''making him wilt'' LMAO. Durant is 7', LBJ is 6'10, MJ is 6'6''. He would be exhausted trying to cover either, then you have him bringing the ball upcourt half the time. And...Jack Sikma, ''non threat''....Shane, you must be under 30 lol.Still mismatches if you switch big men. Malone and Robinson are some of the most athletic big men of all-time. MJ will foul out. Wow! lol. Malone was a very good defender like McHale but Robinson was as well since Sikma is pretty much a non-threat I can put more pressure on McHale.
Dominique will primarily be guarding Lebron bc he has the reach and is about as athletic as you can get to guard a guy like Lebron. The fact is either is going to stop each other and that is expected. Oscar or KD, isn't guarding MJ and MJ will probably go off for 40 in 30 minutes on either of those guys.
I never compared Kidd to Oscar, but his facilitating is one of the best ever just like Oscar and Kidd was more of a threat from outside. I never compared them overall bc that isn't fair to Oscar.
KD is a great already but having MJ an absolute great on the ball defender guard him he will most likely crumble like he always does in big situations, probably run off to play for Ritz's team or something
MJ >>>>> KD (probably goes for 40)
Oscar >>> Kidd
LBJ >>> Dominque (both would be unstoppable on offense like MJ and Oscar)
Malone >>>>>> Sikma (probably the biggest mismatch on all facets)
Robinson >> McHale (McHale great defensively but so is Robinson and offensively it is no match)
MJ is bringing the ball up in crunchtime.
LeBron is 6'10", no matter what Wiki says lolNot at all. Lebron is without a doubt better especially defensively, he will get his but don't think Nique being also one of the greatest offensive players of all-time....he won't lol.
LBJ is not 6'10". You are reaching hard on that one
Remember these guys are only playing 30 minutes that is about 10+ minutes under their career averages.
You keep bringing up Oscar is a better player, of course he is. Seems like you are reaching hard to exploit that matchup but I just don't see your other matchups being exploited as much as my post matchups exploit your players.
My backups are AI, no one is stopping him just like no one is stopping Gervin. Then I have a great scorer in McAdoo vs Pau, a below average defender. Pretty even but McAdoo better offensively. Thurmond vs Mutumbo---both great defensively but Thurmond was a 20-10 guy. I don't see the bench making a huge difference for either teams.
It really doesn't matter. It's everyone else opinion. Could go either way. I just think MJ bringing the ball up at the end of the game isn't a huge deal bc it's what he does, it's not like he is the primary PG lol.
The guys aren't playing one on one. Reggie Miller isn't one of the greatest players ever, he was a great shooter, that's why he is chosen. There are guys undrafted that are more traditional, like Bob Lanier. I took Sikma because I already had great post defenders in Mutombo and McHale, and great post scorers in Pau and McHale. Sikma was a great rebounder and shooter. He was a more athletic, better shooting Laimbeer.
Your team is interesting. You'll be tough on some teams, in a bind against others if you keep both centers on the same unit
It's going to take specific personnel to best you. Picking Steph was a great call, but a team with a great defensive point guard could play a box and one type zone, lane would be totally clogged. On the other end, bigs that can shoot outside would be a major issue
