Ill take LCA over SC.
Moses played Kareem alot and handled him pretty well. Seemed he always outrebounded Kareem. They scored around the same Elvin hayes vs Bosh would be interesting low post player vs a stretch player. Payton would lock steve down however. Kobe would also eat Dr J up. I would start Elgin personally and he would win the matchup against worthy I believe. Hard to say but I think Kobe puts LCA over the top. Nobody to really slow him down unless Dr. Js length bothered him.
Ill take Redredemption over LospollosHermanos
Magic and Glide just are too much for Frazier and Maravich. Plus no way mikan can stop a 7 6 dude. Hed have to be super fast or super strong. Im assuming hes neither however I wasnt alive back then to know.
Spooner vs Red Nation is the hardest matchup for me to judge. I like that spooners backup is westbrook. He can slide in with Tmac and Hill and Red Nation doesnt really have enough defense to guard them. Barry and West wont be athletic enough to handle the backcourt of any lineup Spooners throws out. Shaq is a beast but I think Russell has the muscle to slow him enough. Shaq will still put up 20 plus points but it wont be anything over 30 or some abysmal number. Kidd getting to ball to Tmac and Hill would be hard to stop. Dumars and Marion would have to play alot to even provide an ounce of defense. Mchale and shaq together in the paint also messes up spacing I think.
Ill go Spooner game 7 Tmac game winner. Close call though.
