Team Saint Cy of JFC:

PG - Stephen Curry / Rajon Rondo
SG - Manu Ginobili / Brandon Roy
SF - Tracy McGrady / Dale Ellis
PF - Karl Malone / Anthony Mason
C - Marc Gasol / Ben Wallace

Team rare144:

PG - Penny Hardaway / Jason Williams
SG - Pete Maravich / Jimmy Butler
SF - Dominique Wilkins / DeMar DeRozan
PF - Kristaps Porzingis / Karl-Anthony Towns
C - Wilt Chamberlain / Mark Eaton

Saint Cy of JFC's Case:

My team is unstoppable offensively and has toughness defensively.

rare144's Case:

Let us take a look at my opponent, who is Steph Curry going to guard 6-7 Penny or 6-5 Maravich? Ginobili is not even a starter on a real NBA roster. The power forwards are 6'7 and 6'8 and are expected to match up against stretch 7 footers in Towns and Porzingis?

This fictitious series would not be close.

How can a team help guard Chamberlain down low when you have Porzingis who can step out anywhere and murder you? That's my recipe, two 7 footers on the floor at all times if need be, pick your poison .

You then have an array of slashers to contend with in Dominque Wilkins, DeRozan and Jimmy Butler. His defense is shredded to death.
 
Malone would destroy Porzingis lmao. I dont think Porzingis could score on Malone without getting injured.
 
I dont think I need to help on Chamberlain, Marc Gasol is a huge body and solid defender. If it's such a huge problem, I can always put the guy who has the top 3 defensive seasons by advanced metrics. He guarded Shaq too, so dont tell me Chamberlain is too big.

Did Chamberlain even see anyone Marc Gasol's size and skill level when he played? How is Chamberlain going to react when Gasol is the trailer and bombs 3 pointers?
 
Towns and Porzingis draining 3s, 7 foot tall, who stops that? Gasol would be gassed then he'd get dunked on in his face multiple times with my squad putting on their own dunk competition

I have 5 ball-handlers who can all run the PNR w/ the greatest PF of all time.

Curry and Dale Ellis are possibly the two best 3 point shooters of all time.

Roy and Ginobili are jack of all trades offensive maestros who can play on or off ball.

T-Mac is my hyper athletic scorer/slasher who will take advantage of the spacing I have w/ Gasol's 3 point shooting and Malone's midrange game.

Ben Wallace, the guy who has the 3 best defensive seasons of all time.

Or Malone. The guy was a pretty good defender too.
 
And if your best offense is 2nd and 3rd year players going up against some of the best offensive players of all time, I think I have the advantage.
 
head to head for me. this is how i vote. starter 2 pts for winning head to head 1 point for bench

steph vs penny - split
Manu vs Pete - pete all the way
mcgrady vs wilkins - wilkins easily
Malone vs Porz - Malone in a laugher
Gasol vs Wilt - Wilt would destroy gasol

Rondo vs Williams - Rondo Easily
Roy vs Butler - close but i like Butler better
Ellis vs Derozen - Ellis easily
Mason vs KAT - Kat is better
Wallace vs Eaton - even if i give this to Wallace rare wins but I am a homer and would pick Eaton

It wasnt even close. I like Rares team much better

Ignoring that your evaluation is completely wrong, it's kind of preposterous to judge a basketball team by who wins the most individual (and rigid) matchups.
 
My team individually and together is better, this look like a selfish player?

Not to mention the passing of Maravich, and far as experience lol, Chamberlian and Pistol Pete are considered by some to be GOATS (Greatest of All Time)

Both Penny and Jason were personally recruited by Shaq meanwhile no one wants to play with Rondo, he's a cancer. Penny is like Kobe but with assists! Steph wouldn't be able to guard him one play, I like Curry but man he can't run the pick and roll like Stockton. He is nowhere near the assister Stockon is and his defense compared to Stock is day and night.

My team is too good, you're just a bully. :D
