Who has the deepest bench in the NBA?

[DYNAMICS]

Portland would be 3rd if it wasn't for the injuries.

 

[bangdak]

Orlando by far.


Portland's a good pick too.



And people honestly think Dallas' bench is deep? Maybe im the only one who thinks their bench is thin as hell then...

The #+%* are you talking about?

Dudes mentioning Dallas, Boston, L.A.'s bench in here ahead of us...Only one I truly agree with is ORL.

Let me get this right...

NT's opinion:

Mo Williams: BUM
Anthony Parker: BUM (I'll admit it)
LeBron: 2nd best player in the L.
Antawn Jamison: ?...just joined the squad.
Shaq: Washed up, nothing but a body.

Why do we have the best record in the league again?

you answered your own question

playing in the east don't hurt either. 90% of your national telivised games seem to be at home too but i'll admit thats probably just my mind playing tricks on me

 

[eneyekayee]

Basketball is a TEAM sport.

So you're claiming he is THAT good?

1 man = best record in the NBA?

Seriously?

 

[duba169]

yes i think he is that good. how else did he make the finals with an even worse team than he has now?

i really believe that he is THAT good. if you put him on the magic they'd win over 65- 70 games. only competition would be some teams in the west

 

[jmause3]

i say orlando closely followed by dallas

I was at the Raps VS Blazers game a month back and the bench just killed the Raptors slowly.

Yep.

The Magic can throw out J-Will, Reddick, Pietrus, Bass/Anderson, and Gortat.

Dallas is next... and before people pile on the Cavs, their bench is good, but not the best.  Give me Varejao, Hickson, Big Z, Powe, Delonte, and they're all solid.

EnEye... you really believe Lebron is 2nd, who is first to you and why?

Also Lakers bench is garbage

ok maybe im reaching LO, FArmar and Shannon sound good, but damn they be mad inconsistent.

Magic, Dallas and Cavs in that order. Cavs got height and tons of effort

 

[agold1002]

first of all this thread means nothing because everyone knows the playoff rotation is at most 9....and for the cavs not to be mentioned by a non-cavs fan is pretty pathetic...

and by the way anyone saying that we barely beat an old spurs team or lost to the bucks without lebron needs to remember shaq and z were both out and jamison was out for the second half of the spurs game.

Playoff Bench...
Varajeo
West
Z
Moon/Williams
/Thread

 

[truthteller]

Dallas.

Theyre loaded.

 

[DYNAMICS]

At bringing Playoff Rotations into this.

 

[mistererickk]

For all you throwing out Dallas... how is their bench better than Orlando?
I mean besides Terry and Dampier (and maybe Barea and the rookie...), how does even compare up with J-Will/Pietrus/Bass/Redick/Gortat/Anderson?
Just curious.

This right now. With a healthy Jason Terry I would flip it

Umm... no.

 

[gko2408]

Dallas.

Jason Terry off the bench provides instant scoring punch will opening up the floor for a guy like Caron Butler, who can penetrate and do a lot with the ball.
Dampier/Haywood is as good of a frontcourt duo as you'll get outside of L.A.
Najera provides solid play, takes nothing from the table.

I would argue that the Mavs actually have a more complete team than L.A.
Marion and Butler can keep switching off on Kobe, which I think is the most effective defense against him, while the frontcourt has enough length to slowdown Pau and Bynum.

does anyone give the cavs props because they had the best record in the REGULAR season last year...everyone knows that these games mean nothing to the contenders

100% true.... how he got that team to the finals a few years back is mind boggling

 

[Retroballer]

Houston might not have the best but i love what they bring night in and night out.
