There are so many unknown factors that go into the game engine, I don't think knowing your opponents' players' skills would matter that much. If I know that a team's PF has proficient rebounding what kind of advantage have I gained?

And you should know that from the fact that he is averaging 12 boards a game.

He can look at their stats.

That would be ok, but it gives him less control. fine by me.

I would limit the coach to the 20 players who received votes, and he would have to take the top 10

I don't think he should see any of the stats. If two teams go had to had for the first place on their conference, but one team has many players in the ASG, while the other is more balanced, and didn't get any participants. If the coach of the second team becomes the conference coach he'll have an advantage over the first team.
You are right, the same problem exist in national teams.

I just want to say that I think this a really cool idea. I agree that the top 10 players should be fixed, as well as the starters, allowing the coach to pick the final 2 spots and also to set the depth chart and tactics accordingly. No player skills need to be shown, for reasons already mentioned.

Your point is taken, you can see their abilities through stats, but I still maintain that knowing the actual skill levels of some of your leaguemates' teams wouldn't give an tremendous advantage to an ASG coach.

It may or may not give an advantage, but it would certainly give a perception of giving an advantage.
