Re: 2003-04 ALL NBA 1ST TEAM vs ALL ROOKIE 1ST TEAM

I see why all of these conversations end up in debates for me. The Rookie team votes seem to be offensively based. I get it. The rookies have some scorers.

However, the 1st team is so superior defensively its not even funny. With Kidd at PG and the extremely high IQ of the big men on that lineup, I don't think the 2nd team could generate the turnovers to make it an uptempo game. Rebounding would be a HUGE problem for the rooks as well. Traditionally when a team has better rebounding, a better post game, a great clutch shooter and the superior point guard, it wins the game.
