Current Players Draft First Round: Hack v. Cy

Who would win in a 7-game series?

  • Total voters
    21
  • Poll closed .
Also, I would rotate Mills at the PG and SG.

Rotate Green at SG and SF.

Rotate Leonard at SF/PF.

Hayward at SG/SF.

I might play Pek more in this matchup too since I'm not extremely worried about his team attacking the rim.
 
Hayward will struggle finishing at the rim and making shots.

How much is Leonard's success is because he plays on the Spurs. I have a feeling that if he played for the Bobcats he wouldn't be thought of as good as people think.


I don't think Luol Deng is over the hill either. He is only 29. His numbers were great last year until he was traded to Cleveland. But he still averaged 16 on the year.
 
This match-up is really difficult for me to make a call on...


Cy's starting lineup has a slight edge as Davis can score but Drummond & Ibaka just can't .. and I think DWill and Leonard can keep Curry & Deng in check somewhat .... But if we are going to include the bench as well then I think Hack takes it with his depth...


Tough call.

Hayward scored just fine vs. Drummond this past year.

Ibaka and Drummond can't score? Their is more than one way too score. Drummond is a beast down by the basket.

Ibaka has a great shot.He just plays on the same team as Westbrook and Durant, and still averages 15 ppg. Ibaka shoots like 38% from 3. And +50% fg. He can make mid range face up shots all day long. You have to guard him on that.

Well may be cant score is too strong a word... he can score its just that Davis is a better scorer ... the same way Curry is a better scorer than Dwill at this stage of their careers....

I wouldn't say Davis is a better scorer than Steph Curry. I think in the near future Davis will the more valuable and overall superior player. But right now, Steph can easily outscore Davis. Davis probably will never be a better scorer than Steph, but if we're to start a franchise with one or the other, I would prefer Davis because of his defense and scoring combined.

Not saying that, just saying that offensively:

Davis > Ibaka

DWill < Curry


Hence the close match-up.
 
This took me a minute. These teams are constructed pretty similarly. Where Hack has the best offensive player in this game (and maybe even in THE game), Cy's team is more balanced in every other way.
