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. Once the writeups are posted, I will add a poll, and the team with the most votes after 24 hours will advance. EACH MANAGER SHOULD ALSO VOTE FOR THEIR OWN TEAM IN THE POLL - IF YOU FAIL TO DO THIS, YOU ARE SIMPLY GIVING AWAY A VOTE. If the votes are tied, we will decide the matchup via AI vote.

You are not required to state or explain your vote, but you are free to comment in the thread if you want to.

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).

Best of luck Laimbeer

Offense
The offense is really versatile with two mvp type scorers ( Jimmy and Dirk ) with good spacing all around, elite playmakers/Passers that can play with other ball dominant players ( Kidd, Darius and Jimmy ), lob and pick and roll players in ( Jarrett Allen with 72ts% and Gobert ), slashers in Jimmy and Darius and finally Dirk at his peak spacing the floor for the others and

Defense

all my guys are elite defenders outside of Darius and Dirk

Defensive matchups

Dirk/ Gobert on Lopez
Jarrett/ Ausar on Giannis
Jimmy butler / Ausar on Khris Middleton
Darius Garland on Herbert
Jason Kidd on Deron Williams

overall

I think both teams fit really well imo but I think I got a bit of talent advantage due to picking late in the game and getting two mvp type players in Dirk and Butler vs Giannis.

Brook Lopez (36) / Maxi Kleber (12)
Giannis Antetokounmpo (38) / Khris Middleton (10)
Khris Middleton (28) / Herbert Jones (20)
Jalen Suggs (24) / Ray Allen (20)
Deron Williams (38) / Jalen Suggs (10)

Good luck, Roddy.

We basically have a world Champ with an all-NBA point guard added to the mix. I'd note that Allen being occupied with Giannis is going to leave them with really no effective interior defense.

Lopez/Allen, Giannis/Dirk, Mids/Butler, Deron/Kidd, Suggs/Garland is pretty solid.

Good benches, but Allen is the best piece for getting key buckets and be a difference maker.
