Team 1 is just outgunned talent-wise. When all these guys are fully healthy, you could argue they have the worst player among all 4 teams at every position except PF, arguably SF (Jimmy vs Tatum).

I think I’m leaning team 4? Again all fully healthy, that is a ridiculous 2-5 defensively.

4>2>3>1 imo

I'd have been much happier with a PF that could switch with Durant rather than a C/PF like Towns but I'm leaning team 3 (curry) assuming everyone healthy because Curry has a strong advantage over any PG but Luka and Durant has an equally strong advantage over any SF but LeBron; add Gobert and Brown for defense and all you want in a PF is someone who won't get hunted . . . Siakam for example even though Towns is a better player. But Giannis and Davis are big PFs so Towns won't be that bad and they should be fine.

Team 2 has Lilliard and Booker at guard. That isn't going to go well on the defensive end, especially with all 3 of the other teams having a primary scoring option at the 1 (and Siakam is the worst PF as well). I have 3>4>>2>1
