Three Degrees Teammates Edition v2 R1 - Stan vs. Snakebites*

[Fadeaway_J]

Here is a quick list of what you need in your writeup.

1. Specific years for each player on your team
2. Rotations and minutes for each player
3. Reasoning as to why your team will win and/or why people should vote for you.

Do not vote in this thread until both managers have submitted their writeups.

If writeups aren't posted within 24 hours, we will vote solely based on the players they have drafted (and any rotations they have posted on their roster page).

**First to 4 votes advances.**

Overall, my feeling is that I've got a pretty solid advantage here. I think I match up pretty well here- prime CP3 is a terrific defender against Nash, PP is perfectly solid to guard Kobe, and we've got really nice rim protection in general to hold this offense in check.

On the other end, I think I've got a more talented overall group than Stan's team, and I think that my star-powered perimeter leaves nowhere to hide Nash. I think Stan's best play is just to leave Nash on CP3 and hope for the best, and I think that means Chris Paul is going to have a pretty epic series.

I also like that I have Rasheed and Brook, not only to match up against Odom and Gasol, but also to draw them out of the paint for CP3/Hill/Pierce. Stan's help defense up front is already less than stellar, but it becomes even more problematic with my front court.
