maybe the 5 best players, but 4 forward/posts and a guard won't compete well.  for a team, i would put

jayne at the 5
nneka at the 4. i agree that kristin folkl was amazing, but i can't put her ahead of nneka or jayne.
starbird at the 3. 
candice at the 2
has to be jennifer azzi at the 1, though i agree that sonja and jamilla were pretty great. and molly almost single-handedly won our 2nd ncaa title.
nicole is the 6th (wo)man. first off the bench at all 5 positions.

jeanette Pohlen was a consensus all-american.

2nd team is kristin & chiney at forward, nicole at 3, jeanette and sonja in the backcourt

not yet mentioned is lindsay yamasaki. terrific player on some not very good teams.

3rd team molly & jamilla at guard, lindsay at the 3. val & kayla (or alanna smith) at forward.

here is a list of our all-americans

Your "second" team beats the first team 4 out of 7 times!

P.S.  Think I'd take Pederson, straight up, over Appel.
