re: Most complete / balanced rosters in the NBA

Considering Tayshaun Prince has like the lowest PER among starters in the NBA, you can leave us out 
I would argue we have one of the better benches in the league though now that everyone is healthy.
I agree with your list and you aren't reaching at all with the Wizards. That backcourt is extremely good and Ariza has been lighting it up from 3 lately. The John Wall/Gortat pick and roll can be deadly.
The Spurs should be #1 though. They have the best record in the league and have been dealing with injuries all year.

You know I love the Grizz RTR
But the lack of production from the 2 and 3 guards make it hard for me to call them complete. Yeah Prince and Tony Allen are awesome defenders. But the lack of offense from those 2 spots makes it hard for me to put them on the list. That said, they are perfect fits for the Grizz.
And I had a hard time picking between the Spurs and Pacers for #1. I just think when you compare each position with the 2 teams, Pacers come out on top by just a little bit. PGs: Parker > Hill. SGs: Stephenson > Green / Belli. SFs: George > Kawhi. PFs: Duncan > West(but West is a solid player). Cs: Hibbert > Splitter. But at the same time, Pop is the best in the league. Its a toss up.
And in regards to Phoenix, even with Bledsoe, i still dont think they are 1 of the most complete teams in the NBA. If we are doing a list on the top teams with the best PG, SG, and SF, they would be on there. But its about a complete team. Frye and Plumlee dont make Phoenix 1 of the most complete and balanced teams in the NBA.
And tigers32, I agree with that as well. Which is why I said I would like to see the Blazers get Batum involved more / become more aggressive. But with the Warriors, when you have Curry and Thompson out there youre going to live and die by the jumper and 3. You have no choice with that. They are arguably the 2 best shooters in the game today. But I would like to see Iggy getting more opportunities and driving to the rack. He only averages like 7 attempts per game. Like Batum, a player of his caliber needs more attempts than that. That would help them a lot. And Lee is getting his touches. Right around 15 shots per game.
