NBA Waiters: Cavs have best backcourt - ESPN

The warriors backcourt is better than their backcourt and I would take the wiz backcourt also. Beal is better than waiters while wall & kyrie are about even.

Give me the suns backcourt also over these 2

Oh believe him. I also believed James Harden back in August when he said he's the best basketball player alive.

It's just a damn good thing that LeBron didn't say that. Heat fans don't need another reason to hate LBJ right now!

Waiters is a role player lol....can't have the best backcourt if one of your 2 is a role player

PHX, GS and WASH have the best three backcourts and then there's a pretty big drop off imo.

Totally agree.

Those are top 3 by a wide margin.

Bulls fans have argued that they have a potent combo with Rose and Butler.

Neither can throw the ball in the Ocean...if they were standing at the bottom of it .

But, they are athletic.

I would rate Toronto 4th.

I mean...what was he supposed to say?

These guys have huge egos.

Should he just fess up and say Beal/Wall and Curry/Thompson take his lunch money on the regular?

For the love of GAWD, Nick Young gave an interview this Summer saying he's better than Kobe Bryant.

I don't know about the best, but they will be better then last year.

I think Toronto's backcourt is at least near the discussion. They combined for over 40 PPG last season and the Raptors finished tops in the Atlantic Division.

 

[bksballer89]

I totally forgot about Toronto's backcourt. I would rank them ahead of the Cavs backcourt also.

Wall made a good point tonight. To be the best backcourt don't you have to start? Waitress was a bench player his first few years

Beal avg. about 5min more per game than Waiters did last season. Their stats were very similar.

Bradley Beal Stats - Washington Wizards - ESPN

Dion Waiters Stats - Cleveland Cavaliers - ESPN

Now if Lebron was a SG, it would different. But then aso Waiters wouldn't be talking. This is also the same guy that couldn't even get along or play with Kyrie. He can magicallt talk now since he has LBJ on his team and his back.

 

[bksballer89]

He's the one who punched Kyrie and gave him that black eye right? LOL

 

[Shanemansj13]

Yah, pretty sure. He likes to talk, we know that.

39.5 is basically 40 PPG if that's what you were trying to prove by posting the picture

Funny shit is neither of them are a top 2 backcourt tandem in the league.

I will take GSW & PHX back court before the Cavs or Wiz

 

[bksballer89]

If Deron Williams actually would play like Deron Williams, the Nets would have the best backcourt out East because I would take Joe Johnson over Waiters or Beal

I think JD was just providing additional statistical evidence as to why the Toronto backcourt should be in the discussion. Basketball Reference shows Lowry averaged 17.9 PPG and DeRozan averaged 22.7 PPG which totals over 40 PPG combined.

I'm surprised they ranked #1 in FG% (Eastern Conference). I thought that's where they get knocked down in the debate. They certainly do when compared to the Warrior's backcourt.
