It's crunch time.

The results of the games for the other teams out West have to be tracked and over analyzed at this point as we try to leapfrog several teams.

Figured this would be a good place to keep that discussion grouped together.

Simple question, which team do you think wins a 7 game series?

2009 Lakers: 65-17, 3rd in Off Rtg, 6th in Def Rtg, +8.1 Net Rtg, 7.11 SRS

Fisher / Farmar
Kobe / Brown / Vujacic
Ariza / Walton / Radmanovic
Gasol / Odom / Powell
Bynum / Mbenga / Mihm

2020 Lakers: 52-19, 11th in Off Rtg, 3rd in Def Rtg, + 5.7 Net Rtg, 6.28 SRS

Bradley / Caruso / Rondo
Green / KCP / Waiters
LeBron / Kuzma
AD / Morris / Dudley
McGee / Howard

The numbers favor the 09 team, but the 2020 team was peaking right as the regular season got cut off. I think both teams have good options to defend the other, and both would play smaller with Gasol and AD at the 5, respectively. I think I might actually pick the 2020 team just because I don't see a great physical matchup for LeBron and AD's athleticism would really bother Pau.

Discuss.
