It's a never ending debate.
I don't think you can make any match in this case. it could be right
9 TIE is about 5~6 normal in my opinion.
and could be wrong.
The main thing is to save enth fo PO and take care of your team. playing tie is an investment and that is te most important fact. The comparison is mere opinion, and depending on the fact (defense, rebounds) you are both probably right.
