But we also thought the same thing with this season vs the prior one.

The West only had 5 legitimate teams with Memphis' injuries, and Houston's problems. So that made the East look a lot better than it actually was.
The East is still worse than the west, but the east is a lot better than it was last year.

Barolt wrote: View PostLike I said, the West was awful after those 5 teams. So it makes sense that those 5 really, really good teams would win a lot of games in their own conference. League as a whole was really top heavy this year. San Antonio and Golden State just exacerbated that.

We took two games from Cleveland, sure, but we got wrecked in the other 4.twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle
