What elite shooters do you have on the bench? Seth Curry and Bertans? I’d love for you to play them because they are revolving doors defensively.
I have 2 non-shooters in my starting line-up, but both of them are good defenders and elite rebounders. This game would come down to defense and rebounding, things that I have the clear advantage in. Your starting 5 averages just under 30 rebounds a game between them, mine is just over 43. Is Lopez and Siakim going to be able to defensively handle Porzingis and Drummond and also be able to secure a rebound with those 2 + Simmons? I legitimately have a better rebounder in every position on the floor.
Curry, Bertans, Porter... Lowry, LaVine above average, Winslow about average. Plus you have a 7'0 big who took over a year to recover from a 9 month injury, Drummond who has no offensive game, Simmons who declines drastically when a team is able to gameplan against him for multiple games, Hield who is a bad defender, etc. Plus I already stated that Zingis + Drummond can't defend on the perimeter and I plan to play small so I take them away from the boards and the only spot where they're good defensively.
Plus, the voting (both the seeding + the results here) clearly show whose team is better
