Finalword......good info. Okay, here is the way I see it. Dallas with Saurav made it to the finals 3 times and won twice. Dallas without Saurav never made it to the finals. It makes me conclude that it was Saurav who took the team to the finals and won the championships. I understand that it is a team sport but I believe that Saurav's presence cannot be ignored. As long as Phoenix has a decent supporting players, I still choose them to win over DC (which has a pretty good team). Like I said in my earlier post DC can beat Dallas without Saurav anyday. I hope some of the new teams are good. Since I haven't seen them play yet, I cannot make any assumptions about them. Okay, here is one last exercise.... If you can choose 1 player from another team to play in your team who would you choose? I have got my money on Saurav.
