Team 1, easily I might add.

Team 2. Team 1 you could just sit in Zone the whole time.

On paper, team 1. In real life, team 2.

I'll take team 1 by a decent margin.

In real life, Yao and Wade are injured 1/2 and 1/3 of the season so team 1 by even more.

is idk acceptable answer?

As for Zone KG has range and perfers to use it rather then not. So having him stand a step inside the 3 point line would be fine by him.

Lebron is much better than Anthony so i would choose 1.

If both teams are healthy team 2

I think it is closer than a lot of you are making it out to be. I would take team 2.

I'll take team 2

I don't know how else to do it except on paper, really.

Paul is better than Deron. A healthy Wade is basically equal to a healthy Kobe. LeBron is better than Melo, and KG and Duncan are about equal. Dwight and Yao? Doesn't really matter, LeBron is way, way better than Melo.

Team 1 may not have great 3 shooting (though Paul is pretty good, and LeBron is OK), but their passing and slashing would be unbelievable. Paul, Wade, LeBron and Garnett are all top 3 passers at their respective positions. This team could be incredible with a dribble-drive offense - any of Paul, Wade or LeBron start it off by beating their man off the dribble (nobody can stay in front of these guys), and then scoring themselves or delivering an excellent pass to a cutter or a mid-range shooter. Also, re: spacing issues, Garnett has great range for a PF, which could minimize the problems. Team 2 actually has 2 low post scorers (Duncan and Yao), as well as a SF who likes to do a ton of his scoring in the post (Melo), so don't assume Team 2 would have better spacing just because their players have higher 3p percentages. Team 1 would also outrebound team 2 (Dwight is a much better rebounder than Yao, and the two teams are roughly equal in terms of rebounding at the other positions).
