Sacramento vs. New Orleans

Starters:
Mike Bibby vs. Andre Miller - Advantage: Sacramento, but not a huge margin
Kirk Hinrich vs. Mike Miller - Advantage: Tie, they can really use each others weaknesses for their advantage. Miller bullies Hinrich on offense and vice versa....
Erick Dampier vs. Brad Miller - Advantage: New Orleans, Miller will just take Dampier in the perimeter and Damp can't score on Miller's weak defense...
Pau Gasol vs. Anderson Varejao - Advantage: Sacramento, its obvious...
Andrei Kirilenko vs. LeBron James - Advantage: New Oreleans, Well, its Lebron James...

BENCH:
Gary Payton vs Rick Brunson - Sacramento
Morris Peterson vs. Gerald Green - New Orleans, Gerald is way better the Mo Pete
David Harrison vs. Zarko Cabarkapa - Tie...both unproven
Austin Croshere vs. Martynas Andriuskevicius - Sacramento, Croshere is a veteran and can hit shots
Eric Williams vs. Matt Caroll - hmmmm...no one
Sasha Vujacic vs. Mardy Collins - Nah...both unproven...I say its a tie
Cedric Simmons vs. Tyrus Thomas - New Orleans, Tyrus already proven it against Simmons on the NCAA..

to sum it up....

I have New Orleans winning this match, individual matchups might go to Sacramento but King James having a better supporting cast can win it...New Orleans in 7
