I personally take the Injured Squad
This would be a really fun practice/scrimmage to watch if everyone were healthy.
Injured team has dynamic all-star at point guard, good shooters at the wings, and good rebounders down low. They lack shooting overall though and if anyone but Ja is playmaking the shooting off ball becomes even worse. They’ll collect a lot of their own misses but the paint might be packed.
Healthy squads biggest issue is that one of the two primary ball handlers has no continuity with the team. An issue that injured squad doesn’t have, Luke can shoot from anywhere. One of the biggest reasons they’ve struggled the first three games of the season IMO. Defense should be solid, but rebounding will still be an issue. Bane should have a big advantage over Luke on the offensive end. Luke will probably have him running defensively though.
Tough one, ultimately I think I go injured squad for now. If we look 20 games from now I probably take healthy squad. Smart will be used to playing with the guys/finding their spots by then.
