Cavs with Shumpert, Smith and Mozgov. Perkins is a nice third line Center too.

Who do you think?

Rondo was looking to be the best...but we all know how that went...

Hard to argue against what the Cavs got and the transformation the team made. Some of that was due to LeBron getting healthy and everyone gelling, but the trade to get Smith, Shumpert, and Mozgov took them from fringe/borderline contender to legit contender.

Had OKC gotten Durant and Ibaka back in time to make the playoffs, and they stayed healthy for the first round, OKC's mid-season pickups would've made them pretty scary. Given how close a few of the NOP/GSW games were, I think OKC would've taken the Warriors 6 or 7, and an "upset" wouldn't have been a surprise. Their defense would've been a little worse than the last few seasons (although still pretty solid since Ibaka and Durant really spearhead the defense with their insane length and athleticism) but the offense had the potential to be better than it's ever been in the KD/Westbrook era.

Agreed. Also, Dragic to Miami was good.

Mozgov

Changed the entire makeup of our team for the better.

Smith & Shump are icing on the cake.

Impact wise, the Cavs with Mozgov.

The Heat got the best player in Dragic though.
