Wow. Really tough draw for me here.

I'll give X Factor this, he has tough defensive centers in McGee and DPOY Chandler. It'd be hard (impossible) for Hibbert and Omer to score down there.

Advantage-X

He also has a good late game scorer in Paul Pierce. Danilo Gallinari and Michael Beasley are much better than Steve Novak, who is a 3 pt. specialist. Paul couldn't keep those two in check all game long.
Advantage-X

His SGs are better than mine as well in Gordon and Thornton. Now X's weaknesses comeout. Despite those two being better players now than Allen or JR Smith, I think they'd struggle closing out on those two who have in the gym range.
Advantage-Draw

I also think my one two punch of Parker/Teague is better than Rubio/Lin, mainly on Parker's experience. We know what Parker will bring night in and night out. Really hard for me to say on X's two PGs who showed immense talent and scoring in their first years in the league.
Advantage-Fisch

PF Kevin Love has been a solid player for two years now, but will face a tough test on both ends of the floor with Josh Smith. The one question I have about Smith is will he decide to take stupid shots all game? We know Love doesn't, but will face a great test from all-defense Smith. David West will provide Love and Faried a challenge down low and off the pick and roll with Parker or Teague.

Advantage-Fisch

X built a great team and I can't fault anyone for voting for him, I think I have the right mix of experience and youth, where X has more of one hit wonders so far at most positions (PG-SG and Novak, rookie in Faried) and in the end, experience would help my team to victory :D

At first glance I thought X, then Owen you look a little closer at the matchups it became really close. In the end I made my decision based on my opinion of who's team is better taking into account that starters would play more an bench so for me starting lineup is the deciding factor here because I see the benches as pretty equal. My vote will remain a secret :shifty:

I agree with most of what you said....except for when you gave yourself the advantage at PF. Love was the 4th leading scorer in the NBA Last season. He was also the 2nd leading rebounder. Smith is good, but he jacks up too many terrible shots to be compared favorably to Love, the best PF in the game.

I do like Parker, but I feel comfortable saying both Lin and Rubio are better players than Teague. That being said, If my argument is that I have the best PF in the group, I win the PF battle...the same would hold true w/ PGs, and you'd win that battle.

I like having the best closer on the floor, too :D

I'd give Fisch's bench a slight edge, but X has the two best players on the court in Love and Pierce. Pierce is also clutch as heck and Thornton is a heck of scorer to have off the bench. It's really close, but I'm going with X. :tiptoe:
