The best duos in the NBA today

Sprite slam dunk champion Blake Griffin and 8th leading scorer Eric Gordon. Young and talented. These two have great futures ahead of them. Griffin has one of the best dunking abilities, I can even say from what I've seen better than Dwight's and Eric Gordon, the fact that he's the 8th leading scorer just means this kid can shoot, and well. Both can put up 20-plus points each every night.
 Probably the most known duo on my list of best duo. Two veterans,two excellent shooters,two great decision makers,two players past their prime. Jason Kidd and Dirk Nowitzki are probably the two most deserving players in the league to become champions right now (aside from Nash). The two have appeared in the finals but fell short to two of the premier shooting guards in the league today, Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade. I hate to say it, but I don't think  Kidd or Dirk will ever win a title.
 Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. The duo averages around 50 points a game alone, just the two of them. Durant is the youngest scoring champion in NBA history and is still going strong, while Russell Westbrook is a spitfire. He is just so fast and strong for his size.
Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis. The fastest duo in the NBA, not probably but the fastest. Ellis plays the two but is naturally at point but with Curry along he's forced to play the 2, but that doesn't really slow him down. Monta Ellis is still one of the league's top scorers and is a fantastic finisher. Curry, an excellent passer and handles the ball really well. It's just a shame that with all the young talent Golden State have, they aren't a better team even with 2010 All-star David Lee.

Finally. My favorite NBA duo. Derrick Rose and Carlos Boozer. Rose potential MVP and Boozer former All-star and NBA vet. This duo is a classic example of the traditional two-some, the duo of the point guard and power forward. Rose and Boozer are both great scorers averaging 44 points for the Bulls and both excellent defenders as well. Because of Rose and Boozer the bulls are now one of the most dangerous teams in the NBA and 3rd in the East.
