Warriors have them outmatched everywhere I think, likely sweep.

I don't believe as good team as 1994 Knicks can be swept by similary talented team with slightly worse success. I think it would be a great battle.

Meschery/Lee/Thurmond vs Mason/Oakley/Ewing looks bloody :)

Oh wait I for some reason thought it was 67 76ers not Warriors.

Warriors would win.

Thurmond was capable of having similar defensive effect Hakeem had on 94 Ewing. Ewing just couldn't get anything going near the rim vs Hakeem and was forced to take a lot of jumpshots which he converted at a horrible rate. I see Nate bodying him outside the painted area and from his preferred spots on the floor.

As much of a volume shooter Rick Barry was in the 67 Finals I trust him far more than I do John Starks in a 7 game series. That guy always managed to shoot himself in the foot in the playoffs.
