3rd and 4th in ppg are Spurs and Nuggets.
That's nice?
Doesn't take away the fact that the top four teams by total offensive rating are led by Durant, Paul, LeBron and Carmelo.

They're very deep, but they also have the best PG in basketball, who can get any shot he wants and get to any spot he wants on the floor. You're attempting to suggest that doesn't make a difference, which is ludicrous.
Starting to wonder if you're trolling or something.

I think the Nuggets are a prime example of this, with Carmelo gone, they just swing the ball until someone gets a great look and takes it as opposed to giving the ball to Melo and allowing him to shoot tough shots. Weren't the Nuggets one of the top offensive teams last season? I also believe this is the case for the Bulls. I think their offense flows much better without their "the man", Derrick Rose. Bulls are just a bunch of good role players that keep swinging the ball until they get an open shot. What are your thoughts on this matter?

No, Monta Ellis can't make you the #1 offense, but Durant can, Paul can, LeBron can. Those guys are "the man".

Go look at the amount of points those teams scored and compare it to the amount of points the Spurs score now.

Yeah, they've become a better more efficient offensive team. But this style of play won't benefit them in the playoffs when the game typically slows down and the defenses tighten.
Having an efficient offense doesn't make a team better in the long run if they don't have that one player that can change the outcome of a series in a 7 game format.

This is where you are wrong. how many times were Paul's Hornets an offensive juggernaut? Never, but when he moved to a team with good role players like the Clippers and they started swinging the ball, it became a top offense. Same can be said about Lebron's Cavs.

Same thing for golden state, they have 5 guys in double figures.
