This team had 3 players which were top 2 at their positions the following year.

Westbrook #1/#2 PG
Harden #1 SG
Durant #2 SF

Never seen a team so stacked in my life.

Bosh was never #2 PF. And that team didn't have an elite shot blocking pf like Obama as well.

You reek of insecurity. Has Bosh's recent dominance affected you that much?

below the 2011 miami heat and 2015 cleveland cavaliers.

speaking of the 2011 heat, it is shocking how similar that teams was to 2012 okc. both had alpha guys leading the team (wade, durant), very nice 2nd guys (bosh, westbrook), but lost out on the championship because their third guy left their talents in the conference final series (lebron, harden).

Dirk
Bosh

OFC we have to exclude Lebron chaining down teammates to make their numbers worse. Bosh was the MVP of the Chi series and played much better against the best PF in Dirk than Pau or LMA did.

Relative to competition, they were the most stacked team in NBA history. Top 3 point guard, 2nd best player in the league, Serge Ibaka who is basically Chris Bosh on steroids, and a 27 ppg franchise player waiting to be unleashed in Harden! :bowdown: :bowdown:
In all honesty they should have swept the Heat in 2012, and Vegas thought they would. Unfortunately superstars Ibaka and Harden were marginalized by the suboptimal play style of their ball dominant small forward. :facepalm
With Durant dribbling out the shot clock ever possession and forcing Harden and Ibaka to try and hit bail out shots at the last second, their percentages took a massive hit and the media unfairly threw all the blame on them. But hey, at least Durant got his precious stats. :rolleyes:

Harden was not a better player than Wade in 2013, regular season or playoffs.

Jeez, put up 21/5/5/2 on 52FG% on a 66 win team, with a 27-game win streak (which just so happened to correspond with Wade's best period of play that year), and get relegated below a 25ppg high volume chucker who still even now hasn't learnt to play any defense (wade a great defender still in 2013).

Ibaka was the #1 PF that year man you forgot,

This year they got the
#5 Centre in Steve Adams
#1 PF in Serge
#5 PF in PJ III

#6 man of the year Reggie Jackson and the next Klay Thompson in Lamb along with DPOY Roberson so they are stacked again.

All this without KD and Russ crazy.

Dirk, Amare, ZBo, KG, and Aldridge all better than Bosh

Dirk averaged more against Bosh than Gasol btw.

Honestly don't see anything wrong with this thread. 2012 were STACKED. 3 first team all-nba caliber players who are almost certainly going into the hall of fame one day in their primes with minimal redundancy in their skillset - on one team with some other pretty good role-players.

No because Harden and Durant are manufactured superstars. They beated the Spurs with points earned at freethrow line from Harden's flops. Plus the Heat has better role players then OKC.

Shut up dude. Just stop creating threads when it's the same thing over and over and over again. Your act is tired and stale now. Not even funny anymore. Don't get how a human being can feel satisfied when they live a life like the one you do. Like purposely wanna look like an idiot. Sure its to people you don't know but why even? Why not at least try to look like you know what you're talking about or have an invested, intellectual conversation?

Just don't get your troll life. It baffles me why you and the kther guys who post like you wanna be one.
