Re: Chris Vs. George
Curious why Chrises getting more votes. There is a big gap between CP3 and George Hill, but the other four positions are quite arguably all leaning towards Georges. Is players coming from more recent for Chrises a big factor?

85 rules AND COACHING, time machine format, it's close. 85 rules allowing modern playstyles and coaching, Team Chris wins easily. Era dominance translated to 1985, team George wins easily.

Definitely not era dominance translation, that would be unfair...
By 85 rules allowing modern playstyles, are you mostly concerned with Chris teams spamming 3s?

Re: Chris Vs. George
Time machine, I don't think Mikan's game with the primitive hook shots and the like translates; Gervin is lesser too and they are the peak players on that team.
Era dominance, Mikan is an easy #1, Gervin and Paul compete for #2. McGinnis not a good fit on his team, Hill probably the weakest player out there.
I just don't see a way to make a reasonable comp; too much variance for "all born around 1960" to work and their games wouldn't work the same way. At least with either era dominance or time machine you can make some sort of an educated guess how it would go but either way, it quits being a close comp.
