Ibaka, Perkins, and Collison can all hit the offensive glass if Westbrook, Durant, and Harden are missing shots. Also they have good individual defenders like Sefelosha, and Harden on the perimeter and the length to challenge shots at the rim. Nazr Mohammed and Cole Aldrich even have length and size to get some minutes to foul LeBron and Dwade and send them to the line.

That's still not a post game though. And they're primarily a jump shooting team. That's a difficult formula for success. They make it work bc of the length they have and bc Durant and Westbrook are so damn good, but it's still not the best blueprint to follow.
Lebron can D up on Durant, Wade on Westbrook, which means Harden has to pull more weight offensively which is asking a lot.
Miami's defense > OKC's defense
Miami's offense = OKC's offense.
I give the edge to Miami.
NY Knicks >>> OKC and Miami
I give the edge to the Knicks.

whatever, the nets are going to re-sign D-Will and Crash, sign Krstic and AK47 and that top european forward who led the league in scoring and you'll all be terrified.
we apparently also like Ersan. ugh.

Now you're just being a hater.
We'll easily be at worst the 4 seed next year in the East.

It doesn't hurt that the East is an abomination.

They are at best a 6th seed. The Knicks are not even a top 5 team in the east.

You forgot (if healthy) with the Bulls. There are other things that could happen though.

I think the ref was just looking up top and missed the completely obvious body contact down low.
And jesus christ Rondo is so good.

watch the replay again and dont listen to mike breen. Battiers put his leg there for a minor jab. Not enough for Rondo to retaliate but he didn't randomly decide to kick an innocent defender.
