I know everyone really loves Ron’s team and even I can admit that it’s pretty good. However, don’t underestimate my team.

Curry/Klay would feast on his team and nobody is going to stop either one of them.

Drummond played great this past season:

15 PPG, 16 RPG, 3 APG, 1.6 BPG, 1.5 SPG on 52.9% from the field on 11.3 FGA (60.5% from the free-throw line on 5.1 attempts)

1. Drummond

He was the best player at all three of these defensive metrics in the entire league.

Monroe averaged 10 and 7 in limited minutes (20 MPG) this past season. That’s pretty good efficiency as he shot 57% from the field as well.

Green is a great 3&D player and shot 36.3% from three on 4.6 attempts per game this past season.

He has to worry about “trying” to contain Curry/Klay as best as he can which he won’t be able to. Drummond would thrive playing with those two and was great defensively this year. Monroe is a solid contributing piece and on top of everything I have Green who is a good defender as well and you have to worry about him shooting open threes created by my stars.

I have plenty of offense and great defenders on my team. I think I matchup pretty well with Ron’s team and would win the series 4-3.
 
Steph is great but Kemba is a really good.

Beyond that im better at every position. 4/5 positions is a blowout.
 
Giannis & Embiid against Monroe & Drummon would be very enjoyable to watch.

Especially since Monroe can’t really play the 4.

Drummond is the epitome of empty stats. Anybody watching games can see how terrible his man to man defence and pick and roll defence is. And while he improved his FT% last season he is still a liability there. Ron's bench is as well better.
