Team 2 will have stronger team chemistry and defense. Personally, I'd see the front court for team 2 playing better with a back court of Baron Davis and Brandon Roy than McGrady and Parker, greater size, toughness, defense, and team concept with those two. A three man rotation of Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, and Dwight Howard would absolutely dominate the basket on offense, defense, and boards.

The frontcourts aren't close to even despite LeBron's dominance of Paul Pierce. Duncan and Garnett are HUGELY superior to any of team 1's big men. Yao, even when healthy, isn't as good as his stats nor is Camby a good man defender. The big man edge for team 1 is at least as big a dominance factor as the backcourts where Paul and Kobe should own Parker and TMac (though Ginobli is at least as big a factor off the bench as Deron). With LeBron, team 1 does enjoy the overall talent edge but I'd still favor team 2 . . . inside dominance wins more playoff games and no one playing has been there more with more success than Duncan, Parker, and Ginobli.
