Best Starting 5?

[JelloPuddinPup]

Who has the best current starting 5 in your opinion in the league right now? Not just best Big 3 or 2. From top to bottom who is above average in their starters?

I'd have to say it is either the Thunder or Miami. With the Clippers coming in a distant 3rd.

Thunder

Miami

Bulls?

Rose, Rip, Deng, Boozer, Noah is a pretty sick starting lineup.

Lucas looked good in place of Rose. Brewer has been fine in place of Rip. And Gibson would be be fine in place of Boozer. I don't like this Bulls team one bit. Deep azz mofos

 

[VolBuck24]

With a healthy randolph the grizz have a solid starting 5. The lakers starters are also still good aside from the question mark at sf.

The Wizards have been sending out a pretty stacked lineup every night.

John Wall is the worst player in the NBA right now.

I was being sarcastic.

No kidding?

Would easily be the Thunder if Harden started.

He's the worst player that's supposed to be really good.

Ridiculous...

Yes. That's more accurate than my statement.

 

[YankeeVol]

Celtics(when they're all healthy)

 

[TOP]

I would have agreed 3 years ago but Kevin Garnette has been average this year and Jermaine O'neal shouldn't be starting on any team.

 

[YankeeVol]

Garnett, Pierce, Rondo, and Allen alone make it one of the best starting 5(and if they put KG at the 5 and Bass at the 4 then it's even better). The Celts bench however is atrocious and probably one of the worst

 

[gordonr24]

Bulls, Thunder, Grizz. When these starting 5's are healthy, these three are simply the best. All three have a solid blend of offense and defense.

 

[Pulscifer]

Bulls, Heat, Thunder, Hawks, Grizzlies

 

[getyopopcornready]

Nuggets have a pretty good starting 5.

PG-Lawson
SG-Afflalo
SF-Gallinari
PF-Nene
C-Mozgov

 

[Thrasher865]

Thunder

I think the Grizz rival them when they have Gay AND Randolph in the lineup (rare, I know, lol).

Hard to believe it, but it seems that Denver was actually the beneficiary of the Carmelo trade.

They did then and they Still are now.

 

[YankeeVol]

And I do think the Grizz should be in the discussion

 

[Pulscifer]

Definitely. Them and OKC are the future powers of the West. Young roster with a bunch of talent. We probably have the best big men in Marc and Zbo over anyone else (excuse my bias).

 

[YankeeVol]

I'd argue the Grizz have the best 4,5 combo in the league
