2056 is getting undervalued in these rankings. In fact, the numbers suggest that 2056 is the best floor pick up of all. From Ed Law's spreadsheet:
987
OPR: 88
Auto OPR: 23
469
OPR: 81
Auto OPR: 24
2056
OPR: 91
Auto OPR: 32
I'd hazard that we actually saw pretty close to the best possible alliance in 1114, 2056, 1334 at IRI. I could definitely see the argument for having 469 or 67 instead of 1334 to bring full court shooting along with their respective strengths. But when 67 is blocked (as the would almost always be at the highest level) they aren't really better than 1334 - in fact when they went head to head in this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wfr6RVx0AZA 1334 scored 8 more points. If that wasn't the best alliance possible it wasn't far off.
