    Hakeem in his prime would dominate those 3 on his own let alone with 2 other HOFers.

    Switch Hakeem with Mutombo and you might have a few people voting for Yao's team. :)

    Artest is the only player out of the six who can handle the ball. They win.

    Defensively the Rockets are better, but offensively the Celtics are better.

    Actually, we might be better offensively, but even defensively.
    The only people on that list that plays true defense is Garnett and Artest, everyone else has suspect D

    Yao is a great defender, he is arguably an elite defensive big men today, I would say he's above average and real close to elite, but Ray Allen and Pierce's D are in between Average and Above Average like T-Mac's D today, and Yao's D is above average. KG and Artest are elite defenders though

    adding the equation
    1 being average
    2 being above average
    3 being elite

    Artest = 3 Yao = 2 T-Mac = 1.5
    KG = 3 Pierce = 1.5 Ray Allen = 1.5
    Rockets = 6.5
    Celtics = 6

    That's just for Defense, Pierce is a top 10 player in the NBA, better than Yao and McGrady in my opinion.

    If it is a 3-on3, we'll definitely win.

    Forget how Allen will be abused.
    Forget how Yao will bemore effective as you can't quite double team him.
    Forget how Mcgrady's length is going to bother whoever he guards.

    We are the rockets!

    Yao, Dorsey, Battier

    Pretty obvious to me.
