I selected defensive players like Moncrief, LBJ, Ewing, Jordan, and Frazier and will have at least 2 players per quarter who can play defense. We all have scorers on our team and that’s why I chose to get players who could lock down the scorers plus put up points as well. Reggie Miller will be great in the 2nd & 4th to close out the half and then end the game. My 1st & 3rd has scorers and defense. Jerry Lucas with his 15.6 rebounds per game and him with Jordan will ensure we get the second chance points. All that I still have Lebron James and Patrick Ewing in the 4th quarter. Both tremendous defensive players who can also put up points.

This is a tie. I know a team has to win, but holy hell. If I had to choose I think I go UK, I like his bib men a little better.

UK

UK in a close one. Love the fit of Rice and Dirk next to Kobe and think they all can play their best ball without sacrificing much. The 1st and 3rd Gasol provides a real difference in looks for the team and forces one of either Lucas or Jordan to extend out of the paint. Removes them from rebounding position and paint protection. Offensively, Ritz 1st and 3rd don't match up as well.

I guess i'm just not ready to assume whatever team has LeBron wins, Kobe, Robinson and Dirk together would be very fun to watch.

I got UK

I got UK

Does that mean UK's team was better then yours? Also big congrats to @UK Cowboy great team sir. I liked mine, UK's and Shanes a lot this draft. I thought by beating Nos in the first round and getting nos to vote against himself meant I had a amazing team. I over analyzed that situation. UK drafted well on all 4 quarters and has defense along side his offense.

The deciding factor in this one came down to Lebron had a great defender guarding him, assuming Kobe was guarding him, and it seemed like for every great weapon you had he had a good matchup. I thought you had one of the better teams just like UK though.
