    The field has been trimmed from 24 to 16. In this round, the team that receives the most votes will move on in the competition. Review the rosters, then vote for the team which you believe is BETTER

    Hinrich is a fantastic defender though. And with Dwight behind them, they have a good shot

    Yeah, those are some real offensive powerhouses right there. None of those guys shot better than 43.5% from the field last year.

    In terms of post defense, Jordan averaged 5 fouls per 40 minutes last year. Cousins averaged 5.8 fouls per 40 minutes. Dwight led the league in FTA attempts last year, and would have both of those guys in foul trouble all game long.

    My half court lineup (Nash, Hinrich, Butler, Gibson & Howard) has a decided advantage, both offensively and defensively. Even if your bigs don't get in foul trouble when iso'd against DH12, the Nash/Howard screen-roll combination is unstoppable.

    Meanwhile, my fast break lineup (Nash, Gordon, Smith, Anderson & Howard) would run yours out of the gym, while still having the best defensive player in the league roaming on D.

    Also, my team shot 39% from 3pt range last year, which includes Howard and Gibson going 1/15 from distance.

    In the 2 games they played this past season, they took turns dominating each other. In the first game, Dwight was dominant as usual. In the second, Demarcus embarrassed Dwight on both ends and even fouled him out.
