Watching his interview on ESPN after the match, that question was raised, he
said (not a direct quote) that DJ was about as strong as DB, however, since DB
won it's match, he said he would rate it slightly stronger.  He then went on to
say that no one knows how strong DB was since it played so few games and DJ is
there for everyone to play, so maybe DJ was stronger.  He then said DB was
dis-assembled, so the question was not important.

Confused, well that is what I remember.
