Best bench in the league

[Embers]

I think last year the difference between Spurs and the other teams come playoff time was the impact they got off the bench when compared to their opponents. Who this year has the best bench? San Antonio are 100% up their. Id rate the top 5 benches at this stage as

1. Toronto Raptors
2. San Antonio
3. Atlanata Hawks
4. Chicago Bulls
5. Washington Wizards

Something like that for me. Id have Toronto as the best at present. Lou Williams + Vasquez are the two best bench players in their respective positions. They get good play from Patterson and James Johnson too

I'd have Golden State at #1 if they're fully healthy.

1. San Antonio Spurs - Mills is balling
2. Chicago Bulls - brooks, taj, nikola is insane.
3. Golden State - I forgot about lee.
4. Toronto Raptors - lou williams is great.
5. Denver Nuggets - should be better, but it is pretty deep.

I updated with GS. Forgot Lee was back. Still trust Spurs though, they are just solid. And bulls have 3 legit starters with Nikola playing well.

Livingston / Barbosa
Rush / Holiday
Iggy
Lee
Speights / Ezili

Holiday is ahead of Rush now, and rightfully so.

And yeah, Warriors are the best bench. Iggy and Lee are starting caliber players, and Livingston and Speights are really good too. Even Barbosa can score in bunches. He came in the other night and put up 17 points in like 15 minutes.

When Bogut is healthy, the second unit is usually something like:

Livingston
Thompson
Iggy
Barnes
Lee/Speights

That starting 5 would make the playoffs in the East.
