Imagine thinking that's what makes a bench great

:hhh:

You do realize Raptors bench is setting history with their performances?

Raptors starters haven't played a minute in the 4th quarter in 3 straight games.

That's exactly what makes a bench great. Just ask Lou Will, Iggy, Livingston and Crawford. Starting caliber players that become stars off the bench. Cavs have the best bench in the league player for player. Come playoffs, Cavs will destory the Raptors and that's IF they even make it to play the Cavs.

You realize that most teams that win the championship or go far in the playoffs don't have great benches. It's why their starters play heavy minutes and why having a great bench in the playoffs isn't that important because most teams have an 8 man rotation. What are you even talking about? Having a good player off the bench doesn't make the bench great. Also Iggy plays with the starters more than he does the bench, look whos playing in the crunch at the end of games.

You contradicted yourself. An 8 man rotation is a strong bench. Plus Lebron is older and needs a good rotation to stay fresh. Warriors bench is the reason they won against the Cavs the first time. Only the last chip a bench didn't matter in the Finals. Going back two decades the deeper team makes the finals. Even the Boston big 3 had a deep bench, OKC made the finals with a deep bench, all the Spurs winners had a good bench. Only the Heatles and last years Warriors didn't need a bench to win.

"8 man rotation is a strong bench"

No it means you can't play 5 players all game and need to give them a breather. Warriors bench is why they won the first time or Kyrie and Love not playing was? Lakers have never had a strong bench during their 5 titles.

You dead ass trolling right now.

Uh...

That's the point of having a bench..

THE fukk ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

Their bench is why.

Lakers have never had a strong bench during their 5 titles.

So? The Pistons did when they won. Spurs did all of their years. Bostons did all of their big 3 years, and on and on.

So 25 minus...7-8? What I said still stands.

So if the bench is the reason why the Warriors won in 16, does that mean the reason the Cavs won a title was because of their bench the very next year?

Not because K.Love and Kyrie coming back?

Imagine thinking a bench is more important than two all stars.

BREAKING NEWS: BENCH PLAYERS ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN ALL STARS

Lottery teams should start scouting the best bench players in the draft instead of franchise players/all stars.

You're not making any sense.

Cavs won the title the next year because the Warriors got rid of key players that helped them win the year before. Players who were on the bench became starters, and that thinness at SF and big was too big of a wound to overcome.

Then they got Durant and Mcgee they got back what they lost plus a lil boost. Iggy back on the bench. Then they won again.

I know its just one game but the fact Cleveland destroyed the best team in the East with the #1 defense with a completely new team that haven't gelled yet is fukking scary.
LeBron + a pack a young wolves is :damn:. The team pre-trade didn't have that hunger.
