    Has to be Toronto. They might be the deepest team in the league.

    OKC might be best served trading Jackson for some scoring depth before he opts out. Solid defenders who can shoot. They've obviously got a bunch of defensive players meant to serve Westbrook and Durant, but sharpshooter make them a more dangerous team than Iso 'ing a skinny guy like KD or having westbrook penetrate. That wears them out.

    Well thats why they signed Anthony Morrow, to be their sharpshooter.

    I think Chicago is the deepest team.

    They go nights where two starters are out and they still win.

    At full healthy they bring McBuckets on as their 10th man.

    It's been a long time since Anthony Morrow was much of anything. Getting lamb was the right idea but he just isn't going to pan out into a consistent rotation player. Maybe Jeff Green and Brandon Bass for Reggie Jackson in asign and trade. Don't see Rondo staying in Boston after this season.

    Or trade him now to Orlando for Tobias Harris.

    OKC has drafted all their big name players
    Durant
    Westbrook
    Harden
    Ibaka
    Jackson


    haven't gotten similar value's in trades.

    They didn't last year, because Griffin went into beast mode. If you take both Griffin AND cp3 out though, they are indeed in big trouble.

    Chicago is definitely the deepest team and I don't think it's close.

    GSW is second.

    Spurs for sure. Just because number 3 and number 4 on the team are so good. If Mills and Splitter are healthy I definitely would pick them.

    peopple forget the spurs are missing their starting center in splitter, and one key guy on Patty mills. also, since the return from injury ( eye) of kwahi they have only lost 1 game. They are the deepest team in the league and i think they could be a 50 win team in the west even without duncan and parker or leonard.
