38432, bigpo gameplan vs kingkahn

C- Mourning vs Ewing-Both came from under the tutelage of John Thompson. Both were at some point top 3 centers in the league. Both have averaged over 20 and 10. Ewing is a slightly better scorer, Alonzo is a better defender. Mourning many times has been on the all defensive team and has also been Defensive Player of the Year. Ewing is Finesse, Mourning is more rugged. Playing with a volume shooter in MJ, with Ewing use to being the focal point of the offense, will be a difficult adjustment especially with the restraints that the defensive guru Mourning will have on him. Alonzo will be fine playing clean up ball, and hitting his 15 footer, and getting his easy dunks with the playmakers I have on this team. Alonzo also can run the floor with this team, which we will be doing.

Advantage-close but Mourning (do to the line ups)

PF-McHale vs Barkley- Mchale is a very good defender, also he had excellent post moves. Offensively Mchale will have a problem because even though he has a substantial height advantage Sir Charles is quicker, stronger, and has the leverage advantage. Therefore Mchale will be able to back Barkley down too deep in the post. On the defensive side of things Barkley will keep Kevin off balance running the floor, posting up, taking him outside (charles had range as well) and when Mchale comes out on him, blowing by him to the basket. Charles will also murder Mchale on the boards off of sheer will.
Advantage-Barkley

SF- Billy Cunningham vs Mark Aguirre- Billy Cunningham was a scorer, with athleticism, and very high jumping ability, and a lot of hustle. Aguirre is yet another prolific scorer (averaged over 25 numerous times, and over 29 as well) that could get his points within the flow of the game. (Aguirre, Harper, Ro Blackmon, and Tarpley all averaged in double figures in a season). Aguirre could score from three or could take the lighter jump happy “kangaroo kid” to the post. Mark would have a hard time defending Cunningham out on the floor, but Cunningham could not stop him from posting. So it’s a choice of strenghty finesse(Aguirre) vs a lengthy athleticism.(Cunningham)

Advantage- even-both have definite advantages.

SG- Jordan vs Miller- At first glance you may think this should not even be a discussion. But this is my only loss in one on one match up, and still will be a strong point for me.Let me get this out of the way…there is nothing that Reggie can do with Michael defensively. Mike has the advantage Defensively and Offensively, but not really. Let me explain. Michael is an excellent on the ball defender, but reggie will not be handling the ball. Rather he will be running MJ through picks, and double picks (by a strong rugged frountline) and Mike will have to chase him or its open Jumpers all day for a bonafied marksmen. So Millers defense will come on the offensive end by keeping mike in constant motion, and all miller needs is a second to shoot, and magic needs less than that to find him. Both are xxxxxxtremely clutch.

Advantage-Jordan in ability, but in this situation….Draw

PG-Magic vs Maurice Cheeks- A legend vs a good defensive role player. Magic will make everyone on this team better and will see the floor and find openings with outstanding scorers all around him. He too will be able to post Cheeks alllll day long for a constant mismatch. He will also dominate Maurice on the boards, while keeping every player involved and happy. We will run this team all day and there will be nothing that they can do about it.
Avantage- Easily Magic.

Bench-I will have Lebron as my 6th man he can sub from the 1 to the 3. at the 1 more athletic magic…game plan exact same at the 2. more attacking mj from a different angle but mj has to respect his athleticism.(especially with magic running the break) 3. takes away every advantage Cunningham has over Aguirre. Sub brand for barkley and we don’t lose much in either catergory. Rebounds, hustle, scoring ability. Jermaine oneal for Alonzo.-don’t lose much there either. Both are shotblockers both have post game and outside range. Both can run the floor.
Bench avantage Bigpo(because nothing changes)

GP- we will not be double teaming. Our goal is to let mike beat us 1 on 5 while having to try to defend miller. But when we do send help there are no pure 3 point shooters for him to kick out to to constantly hurt us. Mike doesnt have the Athletic side kick that he needs that helped in his success. Billy cant run the offense, and cheeks is not a worthy enough scoring threat. Even havlicek was just a 43% shooter. We will run this team out of the gym, and they cant keep up with these horses that I have.And we hope he moves magic to guard pg or either the 3...mismatches will only get worse. we will save those explanations for when it happens.

bigpo 117 kingkahn-92 Jordan with 43...Magic player of the game with 22pts 14 assist 11 boards
