    Fresh off a full pitcher of rocket red Kool Aid edition:
    • Sengun vs Hartenstein: Sengun
    • Durant vs Chet: Durant
    • Tari vs Jalen Wil: Tari slightly better WS/48, ORTG & DRTG. Both have 7'2" wingspans. Both same age. Tari 2" taller. This is Rockets Kool Aid edition so Tari by a hair.
    • Bari vs Dort: Bari by a mile
    • Amen vs Shai: Shai more skilled, Amen more athletic. Toss-up
    • Edge: Rockets: 4-0-1

    More realistic, still kool-aid analysis:
    • Sengun vs Hartenstein: Sengun
    • Bari vs Chet: Chet
    • Durant vs Jalen: Durant
    • Tari vs Dort: Tari
    • Shai vs Amen: Shai this time, but only due to quantum fluctuations
    • Edge: Rockets 3-2

    How the media will spin it:
    • Bari vs Hartenstein: Hartenstein
    • Sengun vs Chet: Chet
    • Tari vs Jalen: Jalen
    • Durant vs Dort: Durant
    • Amen vs Shai: Shai
    • Edge: Thunder 4-1
