10 yr vets vs 5 yrs or younger

Do you think experience makes a difference?  Let's see how you like this then:

I have three rosters, one consisting of players in the NBA for 10 or more years (in their 10th year), one for players 5 or less (in their 5th year), and one for everyone in the middle.  Who'd win?

10 or more
PG: Steve Nash, Chauncey Billups
SG: Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Vince Carter
SF: Tracy McGrady, Paul Pierce
PF: Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Rasheed Wallace
C: Tim Duncan, Marcus Camby
Res: Rashard Lewis, Jason Kidd, Ray Allen

5-10
PG: Baron Davis, Gilbert Arenas
SG: Joe Johnson, Michael Redd, Manu Ginobili
SF: Caron Butler, Gerald Wallace
PF: Amare Stoudemire, Carlos Boozer, Elton Brand
C: Yao Ming, Tyson Chandler
Res: Richard Hamilton, Jason Richardson, Tony Parker

5 and under
PG: Chris Paul, Deron Williams
SG: Dwayne Wade, Brandon Roy
SF: LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant
PF: Chris Bosh, Josh Smith, Al Jefferson
C: Dwight Howard, Emeka Okafor
Res: Luol Deng, Danny Granger, David West

Ok so here are the lineups.  Who do you think will win this one?  Just something I thought I'd throw together.  Assuming right here right now playing, who wins, who loses, who would you swap out and why?  Take it away.

I really like the guys on the teams and don't have any real arguments with who's up there. But on the 10 and over team you have McGrady over Pierce and Carter over Allen. I'm not a Boston fan at all, but come on. And then on the 5 and under, you have Durant over Deng, then Smith and Jefferson over West. Those are my changes. As for who has the better squad.. I would say 10 and over followed very closely by the 5 and under (that 5-10 team is weak).
