Can someone explain to me how OKC is "stacked?"

[oh the horror]

This seems to be the new hot shit being spewed around here.



Do some of you understand what "stacked" means?

[BlazerRed]

The only way they could be stacked is if you consider Durant alone being stacked. He's won 9 of the last 10 with the second best player being a fringe top 10 PF..

[Trollsmasher]

2nd best player in the league
TOP 2 PG
Best rim protecting duo in the league (TOP 6 PF being a part of it)
6th man of the year
deep and talented bench

:confusedshrug:

forgot Sefalosha, an excellent defensive specialist who is managing to cover Durant terrible defensive play with his outstanding presence

[Fudge]

LOL @ Serge being a top 6 PF tho.

Blake
Love
LaMarcus
Duncan
Anthony Davis
D.Lee
Millsap
Dirk
Bosh
Randolph

[aj1987]

No LeBron fan should compain about another team being stacked, OKC built that team organically through the draft, go moan somewhere else.
Miami built their their through free agency and trades. The last time Celtics won a ring was by acquiring players through trades and free agency.

Do you do anything other than whine about the Heat?

[Fudge]

I'm not, I'm just calling you out on being a hypocrit

But there is a guy from my country playing on that team and he is looking really good...
Laaawwwwwd Adamz.

[GOATbe]

because KD has a better record without Westbrook than LeBald does without Wade. :lol

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Durant
GOATbrook
Perk
Second best Jeremy in the league.
Best Ibaka in the league.
Best New Zealander EVER.
PJ3 is supposed to be the next TMac.
Did I mention Perk?
Fisher has made how many conference finals in the last decade? Like all of them.

Stacked is stacked.

The Celts are tanking, isn't that obvious, but Danny has built a nice platform to build on, stock piled draft picks (17 in the next 5 years) and we have some cap flexibility, we will be back soon enough.

And its not really called bandwagoning when you want someone from your own country to do well, he is representing a small country of 4.5 million people, of course I will be proud, I would have supported him no matter what team he went to.

It's funny. They did the same after the last game which Durant managed to lose completely by himself:lol

[tpols]

Because they have..

One of the best defensive and rebounding Frontcourts in the league. Perkins gives up 36 percent FG elite rim protection and Ibaka averages over three blocks a game. They are statistically the hardest team to score on in the paint. And that is a huge part of why their the second best defense in the league.. Along wit sefoloshas elite man defense, and WB/Durant solid perimeter defense.

Overall Durant has elite help in terms defense and rebounding.


They are a little less stacked on offense but still Reggie and lamb are talented offensive players.. Ibaka is like a souped up Haslem on offense.. If we're counting westbrook it's the best second option in the league when healthy.

[Le Shaqtus]

OKC is shit outside of Durant and Westbrook.

Durant has to score 40+ a night just to keep them close, their only somewhat consistent player is Jackson who scores 16-18 points a night but is not suitable to a starting position. Ibaka is on or off, good rim protector, barely a top 10 PF.

Lamb is too streaky, Thabo is useless, Perkins is Perkins.

Better give them the title this year, so stacked :(

For a Kiwi this is completely reasonable you clown.

Americans wouldnt understand because they own the league, but when a small country gets a player in the L, especially a guy who is part of the rotation, its a big thing for NBA fans from that small country

As an Aussie following Bogut and Mills careers has been fantastic, you always want these guys and their teams to do well. The prospect of another Aussie top five pick is huge to me, I can garauntee I will be on that bandwagon next season.

No, he just has to catch and shoot wide open jumpers, which Ibaka is elite at. Not to mention he blows Bosh out of the water at rebounding and rim protection.

Ironically one could say the same for you and the way you address people here.


Trolling and being condescending online is the ultimate passive aggressive act from people that generally don't speak to people like that in their day to day life because most people would probably punch you in the face. Especially dealing with other males.


So if I'm not directly "aggressive" it's because frankly, I don't give a shit about anyone over the internet.

47% midrange vs 48% for Bosh:confusedshrug:

They both take essentially the same shots.

This seems to be the new hot shit being spewed around here.

Stacked? No. Pretty well rounded with Westbook, hell yeah

[Black and White]

47% midrange vs 48% for Bosh:confusedshrug:

How many 3 pointers has Ibaka attempted in comparison?

[oh the horror]

And I've read the responses.


Outside of Westbrook and Durant which is OKC's jab, and hook really who do thu have to define them as a "stacked" team?

Ibaka is a very good, hardly "elite" level power forward.


They do have elite defense that will keep them in to potentially make the finals but you neutralize one or both WB and Durant? Their offense becomes anemic to the point of hilarity.

Ibaka is not getting you 30pt nights. Perkins is a serviceable center but absolute garbage on offense

Thabo isn't lighting up much of anything.


Their winning right now is a testament to Durant playing godly basketball right now more than their entire pool of talent.



IMO if it was another Miami and OKC finals you'd see much of the same as the first time they went at it. Miami knows exactly how to render Durant and Westbrook useless by turning them into jump shooters.


They have no REAL low post presence.

Ibaka if you want to consider him their third option is up and down at times. He's a good piece but hardly a "go to" man.


Lamb is another that is serviceable to pretty good.



They have some other pieces and they've all fit together well to compliment what they're trying to do. But stacked?

[sd3035]

Durant is the stack

[Mr. Jabbar]

bran parasites throwing their last jabs before jumping ship..first the miami cavaliers then this, it'll soon be over

[J Shuttlesworth]

They aren't really stacked, but neither are the Heat. When you consider Wade's injuries, and the lack of rebounders, there are many teams in the past that I would take over the Heat, including some of the Kobe/Shaq lineups. I'd also take the 72-10 bulls and of course the stacked Parrish, McHale, Bird Celtics.

Regardless, Durant still has one of the better supporting casts in the league. Durant isn't the only reason they have the record they do

[oh the horror]

Stacked? No. Pretty well rounded with Westbook, hell yeah


Yes. They're well rounded I'm the pieces they've got.


IMO they're missing that big third option before one could say "stacked"

And unfortunately in order to acquire that third piece one would have to assume they'd have to move other pieces from their team.


They could be considered stacked if Harden was still with the squad with their existing pieces.

[TheReal Kendall]

I guess Durant is the GOAT cause that's all OKC got right now.

So Lebron stans are admitting that KD >>> LBJ

Out of Miami's big three Bosh has sacrificed the most easily.

Don't need guys that can drop 30 to be "stacked" The team around Durant are all good players that do their jobs extremely well and perfectly compliment Durant. That is the kind of "stacked" we mean. It ain't like Durant is carrying a bunch of d-leaguers, these guys would be good pieces on any great team.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Nobody will debate the defensive aspect but Bosh is more than just a jump shooter
Too bad Bosh can't rebound, which is a primary responsibility for a guy who plays PF/C. The reason they use Bosh is because he spreads the floor with his jump shot. Ibaka has some mid range and hits 3s here and there, so he could have a similar effect.

[MellowYellow]

Bosh>>>Ibaka.

Can you ever see Ibaka carrying that Bosh raptors team to the playoffs as the first option? No fvcking way.

Out of Miami's big three Bosh has sacrificed the most easily.

As a 3rd option having the ability to carry a team means absolutely nothing unless their star is out. Ibaka as a 3rd option is just as good at being a 3rd option as Bosh is, despite the fact that Bosh is a much better 1st option than Ibaka.

Ibaka is better at shot blocking and rebounding, I wouldnt even say defense since he is a terrible man defender.

Bosh is a better at basically every aspect of the game outside of rebounding and shotblocking.

You can throw in whoever you want, doesn't change the fact that Miami has a better team. Who would you rather have come playoff? Miami's bench or OKCs bench?

If Westbrook is starting and Reggie is coming off the bench, I would take OKC's bench and it isn't close imho.

[livinglegend]

If Heat is considered stacked then OKC is even more stacked.
-They have 2 of top 5 NBA players in the league while Heat have 1 in top 10.
-They have great rebounding and paint protection ( Ibaka and Perkins). Throughout the history, most of great NBA teams had great rebounding and rim protection. ( one of the exceptions is Miami Heat because of Lebron s greatness and versatility). Heat has 6-7 2rbs battier and 7 rbs Bosh as the starting front court.
- Great 3rd option in Ibaka.
- Other good role players in Jackson, Lamb, Adams, Thabo...

[Joyner82reload]

Let's just look at how stacked OKC is vs Miami

PER 36 stats

OKC sans Westbrook
Jackson 17.6/5.0/5.3 52.8 TS% 16.2 PER +2 DRTG
Sefolosha 8.8/5.2/1.7 51.3 TS% 10.0 PER +1 DRTG

Collison 9.6/7.2/2.6 60.0 TS% 12.4 PER +2 DRTG

Adams 9.0/11.0/1.8 BLK 53.6 TS% 12.8 PER -2 DRTG
Jones 11.0/5.5/1.1 58.5 TS% 12.5 PER +1 DRTG

Miami
Chalmers 12.0/3.5/6.3 58.5 TS% 15.0 PER -1 DRTG
Wade 20.2/5.2/5.2 57.8 TS% 21.6 PER -1 DRTG
Battier 7.9/3.4/1.2 57.0 TS% 9.5 PER +2 DRTG
Bosh 19.9/8.2/1.6 61.3 TS% 20.6 PER -1 DRTG
Allen 12.8/4.2/3.0 57.7 TS% 12.7 PER +2 DRTG
Cole 10.8/3.5/4.7 54.8 TS% 11.0 PER +2 DRTG
Oden 14.6/8.6/2.6 BLK 48.5 TS% 15.3 PER 0 DRTG
Beasley 19.9/8.2/1.6 57.2 TS% 17.2 PER -1 DRTG
Anderson 12.7/8.7/2.2 BLK 68.9 TS% 17.6 PER -2 DRTG

Yes, clearly OKC is the team that is stacked :roll:

OKC's center, who plays 20 minutes per game, is DEAD LAST in the NBA in PER. That's not out of starting center's, that's out of EVERY center. Dead last. And Perkins is a net 0 on defense.

Sefolosha, OKC's starting SG, is ranked 3rd to last among all starting SG's in the NBA. Only Kirk Hinrich and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope have been worse. And the Thunder are better as a defense with him off the floor.

Jackson scores at way below average efficiency and is the worst defender on the team that gets big minutes aside from Fisher

Ibaka is an elite defender, but he can do nothing but spot up shoot, he's assisted on 80% of his shots.

Jones is actually very promising, but he only plays 10~ minutes per game

Adams is a hell of rookie, but he's still very limited offensively and can't stay on the floor due to foul trouble.

Collison is an elite defender, but he can't protect the rim and can't create his own offense.

Lamb scores at average efficiency, and can create his own offense. He's a above average backup SG albeit he plays poor defense

Derrick Fisher is the worst player in the NBA, excluding Kendrick Perkins.

Summary: There can be a legitimate argument made that the Thunder have the worst starting SG, worst starting C, and worst backup PG(Fisher) in the entire fvcking league. Lamb is a nice backup SG with lots of promise, but he's still young. Ibaka's an elite defender who can't create his own shot. Jackson is a decent PG but inefficient and can't play defense. Collison is a great role player, but he's just that. A role player. Jones barely plays. Adams is a rookie with no offensive skillset. Derrick Fisher.


Going top to bottom of best players
PG: Chalmers=Jackson
backup PG: Cole>>Fisher
SG: Wade>>>>>Sefolosha
backup SG: Allen=Lamb
backup SF: Beasley>>Jones III
PF: Bosh>Ibaka
backup PF: Anderson<Collison
Backup C: Oden=Adams

I'll exclude Battier and Perkins, because Miami plays no true starting C and Durant plays SF for OKC, LeBron plays PF for Miami. But Battier>Perkins anyway

[livinglegend]

Let's just look at how stacked OKC is vs Miami

Yes, clearly OKC is the team that is stacked :roll:

OKC's center, who plays 20 minutes per game, is DEAD LAST in the NBA in PER. That's not out of starting center's, that's out of EVERY center. Dead last. And Perkins is a net 0 on defense.

Sefolosha, OKC's starting SG, is ranked 3rd to last among all starting SG's in the NBA. Only Kirk Hinrich and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope have been worse. And the Thunder are better as a defense with him off the floor.

Jackson scores at way below average efficiency and is the worst defender on the team that gets big minutes aside from Fisher

Ibaka is an elite defender, but he can do nothing but spot up shoot, he's assisted on 80% of his shots.

Jones is actually very promising, but he only plays 10~ minutes per game

Adams is a hell of rookie, but he's still very limited offensively and can't stay on the floor due to foul trouble.

Collison is an elite defender, but he can't protect the rim and can't create his own offense.

Lamb scores at average efficiency, and can create his own offense. He's a above average backup SG albeit he plays poor defense

Derrick Fisher is the worst player in the NBA, excluding Kendrick Perkins.

Summary: There can be a legitimate argument made that the Thunder have the worst starting SG, worst starting C, and worst backup PG(Fisher) in the entire fvcking league. Lamb is a nice backup SG with lots of promise, but he's still young. Ibaka's an elite defender who can't create his own shot. Jackson is a decent PG but inefficient and can't play defense. Collison is a great role player, but he's just that. A role player. Jones barely plays. Adams is a rookie with no offensive skillset. Derrick Fisher.


Going top to bottom of best players
PG: Chalmers=Jackson
backup PG: Cole>>Fisher
SG: Wade>>>>>Sefolosha
backup SG: Allen=Lamb
backup SF: Beasley>>Jones III
PF: Bosh>Ibaka
backup PF: Anderson<Collison
Backup C: Oden=Adams

I'll exclude Battier and Perkins, because Miami plays no true starting C and Durant plays SF for OKC, LeBron plays PF for Miami. But Battier>Perkins anyway

:facepalm :oldlol: :oldlol:

Just lost all credibility.

Joyner be murking negroz lately.

lol OKC's bench is so vastly overrated by everyone that hates lebron it's hilarious.


in 2012 they had one of the most stacked teams in the playoffs but everyone wants to ignore that so they can discredit lebron.

KD, WB, Harden, Ibaka, Perk, Collison, Sefolosha...these guys would get heavy minutes on any team
