If Artest and Cousins work together, no contest. If they clash, no cover. Gotta go with Boogie and the Panda on this one.

Brick has the powerhouse team of this tournament. As long as the starting guards can stay healthy id be surprised if Brick doesnt come out of this as the champ. Cousins and Clark inside with Artest to harass the perimeter players. Then you have the classic unstoppable post up scoring machine that is Demarcus Cousins?! Yikes...

The problem is, neither Keon Clark nor DMC could guard Webber... Keon could try, but Webber shoots and passes too well for Keon to guard. Artest would have to guard Webber... leaving my guards an open floor.

Also, I doubt DMC will appreciate Artest, to some degree, but really John "PASS THE BALL!!!" Salmons ball-dominant style of play... I see Brick's team as really good in the front court, but C-Webb is the best player on either team... and I have him.

I was going to congratulate you on the hard fought battle NoBonus, but DeMarcus pulled me away, and I just spotted Ron running toward you with a panda bear in one arm, and a machete in the other. :)

Nice battle, Brick... I totally see why you won and you definitely have the better team. Congrats!
Well traditional necessity of offsetting your 4-0 with my 4-0, that's not how I would have voted as an outside observer. There was a certain amount of stubby not athleticism to your frontline (Webb excepted), but you might have had the best strength on strength matchups for the Boogie Panda in the tournament. Anyway, you had a strong team. Think its up in 1 or 2 of these Best Of polls I am putting up today as well.
