In the tourney the overall numbers are close with Teague scoring 58 with 21 dimes and 11 turnovers verses Siva scoring 36 with 28 dimes and 12 turnover. Teague more scoring, Siva more assist, turnovers a wash. The difference I see is Siva has had 3 years versus Teague's 38 games but that is 24 more games than the first meeting and Teague has improved tremendously over the last half of the season
I wasn't calling for Siva's head, but I also knew he wasn't healthy for much of the season and was playing at 80% on a bum ankle. Matter of fact, I was on here defending Siva most of the season. IMO Siva is better than teague because he can do more! Here is a good way to judge them. Switch teams and see what happens. IMO no way Teague could have the season that Siva has if the shoe was on the other foot.

There is one other player on the floor that I would take. I would take Behannan over T. Jones every day and twice on Sunday. Behannan has better hops, is stronger and mentally he is far superior.
