Oh right, forgot....

How bout those Nuggets in 1980 though:

Issel - 24 ppg
Thompson - 22 ppg
English - 21 ppg
McGinnis - 16 ppg
Wilkerson - 14 ppg
Boswell - 11 ppg
Roche - 11 ppg
Johnson - 10 ppg
Scott - 10 ppg
Roberts - 8 ppg
Glen - 7 ppg
(including other guys with 2-6 ppg)

Stacked who? Whats that? 150 ppg? Imagine if Kiki was there to that time......

[BoutPractice]

I think they will surprise defensively. Definitely not giving up 125 points (I know that's hyperbole, but still).

They will focus on defense because they're in win now mode. Blatt, LeBron, Matrix, Miller and possibly Allen will bring that professionalism and veteran mentality.

Focused LeBron is a defensive nightmare... Dion, Varejao, Tristan Thompson, and Matrix either already are or can be definite defensive pluses.

We've never even seen Kyrie try on defense (he's 22, at this age not many players care), so what tells you he can't do it? Besides if anyone is allowed to be bad on defense it's the PG anyway...

Contrary to common opinion, Love is not a huge defensive liability either (except at C, but they won't always play small ball.)

Great offense wins games, great defense wins championships.

Of course y'all assuming the defense will be horrible.

Gotta love Rodman making two of these lists

[BoutPractice]

Of course y'all assuming the defense will be horrible.

Exactly.

You underestimate how much defense is simply about effort level and disciplined coaching.

If your players are bums athletically, you won't make the top 10 (but you won't be among the worst either). If they're young and even reasonably athletic, you should be able to make it happen.

Conversely, the offense might take longer to gel than you'd expect, and the scoring be less superlative.

Didn't know she played.

LeBron + Kyrie + Dion alone supply what many on this list are lacking... and that's unguardable 1 on 1 skillsets. Many of those groups played great together, but make no mistake, what the Cavs offer is complete dominance from multiple points on the floor.

[Nash]

Lebron > Pierce
Love < Garnett
Irving > Rondo
Waiters > Allen

[BoutPractice]

Waiters > Allen?

Also, why post this under Nash? It's not like you're fooling anyone by this point.

[KG215]

People need to stop adding Waiters as a "big four" like he's actually proven anything.

No one else is adding him. It's just PB who's got a creepy stalker-like obsession with Waiters.
