    Default Where do the 2012 Thunder rank amongst the most stacked teams of all time?

    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).

    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!
    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.
    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.

    Great post. How LeBron took over that series and be at the three headed monster is simply unbelievable.

    That is why we watch sports.
    Sometimes an underdog is able to rise up and do the impossible!

    In all honesty they would've won if Harden hadn't been rendered into a spot up shooter
