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).

Defensive matchups: Rose on Curry, Allen on Green, George on Roy, Siakam on Draymond, Jokic on Embiid.
While Curry will go off, he also doesn't have a Rose defender to cancel some of it out, trying Green both would have mixed results and would lead to some other issues like Curry/Roy's matchups
Jon has a talented team however I think Curry/Draymond, Roy and Embiid are mixing three different styles of play, with Roy playing in pick and roll dominant offense and Embiid's one on one big man play, Curry can play off Roy but there is some overlap with Green doing that, and Embiid didn't have perfect chemistry with old Harden who has some similarities to Roy. Our other 4 all-star starters should be well oiled Jokic machine around him, note that Rose played with a C who could pass in Noah, his athleticism should allow Jokic to find him for easy scores, while Allen's scoring, George being like MPJ with D and Siakam rolling should all be excellent fits with them. Jokic and Rose are a worse combo talent wise than Curry and Embiid talent wise since Curry is better than 19 Jokic, but stronger fit to make up for it, while I believe the rest of my team is better with Allen, George and Siakam as other starters compared to Roy, Green and Draymond. We also have slightly stronger bench with Mills and West being improvements on Prigioni and Anthony and Ingles close to Wizards Ariza.

GL Dr P.
Another tough one but I think I got the right mix of elite shot creation, defensive versatility, and interior dominance. Curry’s off-ball movement and shooting is a nightmare for Rose and will stretch Jokic out of his comfort zone defensively, forcing constant rotations and opening driving lanes for Brandon Roy, who can score efficiently from all three levels. On the wing, Ariza and Danny Green provide 3-and-D coverage on a younger Paul George or older Ray Allen. Draymond Green anchors the defense with his IQ and versatility, helping on drives from Rose and Siakam while quarterbacking rotations to cut off Jokic’s playmaking outlets. Joel with his physicality punishes Jokic inside, wearing him down on both ends, while also protecting the rim against Rose and Siakam’s slashing. Where Dr Ps team relies heavily on Jokic’s facilitation and George’s shot creation, my team can generate efficient offense from multiple angles.
