    Question Is it safe to say that Cleveland's THIRD best player is better than Chicago's FIRST?

    Serious question here. Specifically for all the people who actually believe that Chicago has a chance at beating Cleveland in a potential playoff meet up.

    How about we wait until we get there.....

    But yeah, if Rose is garbage Chicago will be a first round exit.

    It is safe to say OKC's second best player is better than most team's best player

    Yeah, but not their third best player, which is the case with Cleveland, who has three all star starters and another possible all star in Waiters. Plus it's not even out of the question that Varejao makes the all star team, since guys like Hibbert have made it more than once.

    That alone should tell you, along with Kobe making the all-star game last year playing SIX games, how overrated making an all-star game is. All-NBA selections are usually much more indicative of how good a player really is.

    Actually based on the way Rose is playing currently, you could definitely say Ibaka is better.

    Spurs Mavericks or back in the days Detroit had no superstars either, its all about teambasketball.

    If the Cavs play like a team and Lebron doesnt transform everybody into 3 point shooters ,they are unstoppable.

    Team basketball is the best and Blatt has a team system. On a side note lebron didn't make his teammates into 3 point shooters it was Wades poor shooting game that killed spacing causing Wades defender to stay in the paint and it forced Bosh into staying outside most of the time to make up for it.

    Thunder with two top tiered players, Heat with their big threes, these five players are all better than the best player the Spurs had, and look who won.
