Saw this kind of thread at a different site so I thought it would be a good idea to post here to see what you guys think?

I personally think the Grizzlies have probably the best young talent then the Thunder.

I'd take the Thunder's young talent over the Grizz, Durant is a top 10 player in the NBA, and then you have Westy, Harden, and Perk.

Another team to now consider is the Nuggets. Gallo, Felton, Chandler, Lawson, Afflalo, JR Smith.

I like the Thunder.

Any team with KD leading is going to be successful, and they have guys that can help -- and are talented too.

The Thunder, by lightyears


once their lineup is healthy, (perk-serge-KD-Harden-Westy), the average age of their lineup is 22.4 years old. That lineup right there is arguably 3rd in the WC, and could make a finals run

22! its crazy young.

Yea, this isnt even close. The Oklahoma City Sloppy Seconds are the best young team in the league.

I don't think the Thunder have that much more young talent then everyone.. The Nuggets can be argued.

The Thunder have more of a track record than these other young teams. Theyve gone farther into the playoffs and now that Perkins is on that team, they have a solid defensive interior. Durant also is a big part of that, because none of those other young teams have a true superstar yet.

their average starting lineup has an average age of 22.4, and they are title contenders! and perk is 26, averaged in there. (RW: 22, JH: 21, KD: 22, SI: 21, KP: 26)

The nuggets are much older too; their starting 5's average age is 26.2

and just for the lolz, the average age of the celtics' starting 5 is 33.2 hahahah

They don't have the most, but the Kings have some young talent.

Cousins, Evans, Thornton, Casspi, Thompson...

Even Whiteside and Donte Green if you want to include them.

Thunder, I think they're insanely overrated by most people but I'd say they have the best young talent.

The question isn't who has the youngest talent, it's who has the best young talent. And some of the better Nuggets young players come off the bench because of how deep they are.
