Celtics got the best bench easy peezy

The value of a good bench drastically decreases in the playoffs though

The clippers will still win the series. They just need to steal one on the road.

Duncan can't repeatedly go back into 2005.

The Warriors have a bench that could win some games by themselves. Iggy, David Lee, Shaun Livingston, Speights, Brandon Rush, McAdoo and Barbosa. I would match them up against the sixers any day.

Celtics are a close second I think.

Could you at least give the teams being considered so I don't have to go look at 16 different rosters?

The Lakers as where else will you be able to look across and see Mega Hollywood stars right across from you? Along with that, the Laker Girls are possibly some of the best sights in that department.

The Clippers possibly, but not as many star show up for their games.


Enough with sarcasm.


The best bench is the Spurs as they have guys that fill multiple roles and have experience winning it.

I don't know what's funny. The next five is up against anybody's bench.

In the West you can separate the benches into 3 tiers pretty easily imo.

Tier One: Spurs and Warriors

Tier Middle: HOU, MEM, and NOP.

The bottom are Portland, Clippers, and Mavs.

Can't argue with that.

I can get on board with that opinion. I would move us up but that's splitting hairs. Houston's bench has been great this postseason so they could too.

Prigioni
Brewer
Smith
Capela

Thanks to injuries, that is pretty much Houston's bench. All those players have been great though. I think a 9-man rotation is easily enough for the playoffs.

Wouldn't Terry normally be coming off the bench? I still count him as bench.

Well he starts with Beverley out. We rotate 2 37-year old point guards.
