The Gators have made the FF six times. Which team was best? Which players were the greatest? These Qs beget another: What might Gator all-star teams look like and how might those teams compare? Ever play a game where you and another captain picked your teams? Sure you did. It was essentially a rite of passage for team sports participants, whether in kickball, dodgeball, football, or kick the can. In the current scenario, we picked four teams consisting of players from each of the Gator FF teams: 1994, 2000, 2006, 2007, 2014, and 2025. First, I wanna thank @jeffphillips21, who helped shape this off-season preoccupation and also drafted two of the four Gator all-star teams. Special thanks also go to @tampajack1 and @rserina, who evaluated the player and team lists. Their assessments were statistically reliable (I'll spare y'all the math, as they didn't say there would be any). They knocked it out of the park. The game: Consider how the following four collections of players might matchup. Which would be the strongest? Offense/defense/chemistry, etc. We'll even image that the teams played each other and elicit your choices for matchup winners. The game ends with two teams challenging for the championship, determined by your votes and scores derived from the judges. More on the game details soon. In the meantime, have a look at these 7-player rosters. How might they matchup? .............Team A..............Team B...............Team C...........Team D G...........W Clayton Jr........Scottie Wilbekin....Taurean Green...Dan Cross G...........Teddy Dupay........Lee Humphrey......Alijah Martin.....Michael Frazier G/F.........D Finney-Smith....Casey Prather.......Corey Brewer.....Mike Miller F............Brent Wright........Alex Condon........Al Horford.........Thomas Haugh C............Patric Young.......Udonis Haslem.....Ruben Chinyelu..Joakim Noah --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bench......Kenyan Weaks....Craig Brown.........Will Richard.......Donnell Harvey Bench......Andrew DeClercq..Chris Richard......Will Yeguete.....Dametri Hill
