If I were politicking for votes over CP I would say:
I think Wilt is my trump card. Zo is the only guy who can really match up with him on his roster and I like my chances there, if he picked up fouls I don't know if Daugherty is the answer.
Have PG to chase around Ray.
I would be more than content to go small if need be and throw out Frazier/PG/Reggie/Melo/Webber - still not a small lineup but pushes Melo to the 4 and relieves Melo of guarding Bird and Bird always said he was thankful Reggie was with him and not against him. Or have a back court of Rondo + Frazier and have Frazier check Ray. Either way if I need stops vs Bird/Ray, I'm getting the Frazier/PG/Reggie trio on the floor.
I think it's really even as we probably both would have thought moving Melo or Bird to the 4 would be a nice advantage against most others or going super big across the front line with them at the 3 would do the same. Both we both have a counter for either route.
I'd like to say I have more talent across the board but in a high-stakes game, I admit it'd be hard for myself to not think Bird is coming away with a win as the best player. But I'm rolling with Wilt being the unstoppable force and my size and athleticism causing problems.
btw I was skeptical if I would participate in this thread but it ended up being the most fun I've had in this forum in a while. Kudos to dland, cp, bigj and the others who made it happen.
