Team 1.

They have the two best PGs in the NBA the better SG combo the best SF in the NBA and two of the best Center's in the NBA and they have a better coach.

Team 2.

That front court is awesome
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

Team 1

I think the PG position is what settles this.
Tony Parker can't touch Chris Paul.

I'd go with team one, but i'd start chandler/amare over yao/sheed. That lineup would be absolutely lethal on fast breaks and still has you matched up well on defense.

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.

Team 1 no doubt. You have Paul and LBJ as your primary play makers, Yao, Rasheed, LBJ, and Kobe all in the scoring mode. I think team 1 is better, just all around terrific talent.

Team 1 has way too much play making and fire power. It would've been closer if team 2 had a pass first point guard but both Parker and Davis are more prolific scorers than passers.

Team 1. The frontcourts are about even but Team 2 gets burned on the perimeter.

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.

Team 1. They have the best point guard, shooting guard, small forward, and center in the game, and Rasheed is very underrated.
