How would these teams all do with Miami's road to the Finals?

[russwest0]

Currently lets go with their road to the Finals will be the Bobcats, Nets, and then the Hawks.

If any of these Western Conference teams had that same road, would they make the Finals?

Spurs
Thunder
Clippers
Rockets
Blazers
Warriors
Grizzlies
Mavericks
Suns

[Solefade]

yes the east is weak but miami > any of those teams

Only the Spurs and even then it's iffy. The East just play much better and tougher defense and just better basketball overall.

So the Thunder, Clippers, Rockets, and Grizzlies would lose to which of the Bobcats, Nets, and Hawks?

[imdaman99]

LOL you got the Hawks beating the Wiz/Bulls? I guess it's possible

[moe94]

Nets aren't beating the Raps! Doesn't change your point, but get it straight.

[JT123]

Durant stans and their endless hypotheticals. :oldlol:
What does it even matter dude? The truth is the world will never know how any of those teams would do in a conference that actually plays defense. I mean the Warriors are known as one of the West's best defensive teams and they gave up 140 points last night! :roll: :roll: Stop worrying about the Heat and their road and start worrying about your own team. It's Championship or bust for the league MVP, no excuses. :no:

[SilkkTheShocker]

Wouldn't matter. The team that wins the East would just end up losing to Miami.
soft western conference teams aren't scary :oldlol:

Substitute the Hawks for the Wizards (who currently have the lead vs the Bulls) and either way I don't think it makes a difference.

Yes, the West just play up and down, soft basketball, the East team records are 'bad' only because of the tough competition out East. Bobcats are a 50+ win team easily against the shitty defense out West. Thunder are probably in the lottery, getting stomped by powerhouses like Milwaukee and Detroit.

All Durant stans have left is hypotheticals. It's really pathetic :oldlol:

They have excuses for everything.

[SilkkTheShocker]

They have excuses for everything.

They are already trying to cover their asses for another playoff loss. How many KD stans do you see here saying they will win it all? Almost all of them have excuses in place ready to blame Brooks, Perkins, etc. BUFAGGIII is the only one, and he jumped off the bandwagon after they lost game 2.

QFT. :lol Durant stans trying to blame Perkins for losing a playoff series would be like Lebron fans blaming Haslem for potential playoff exit! :hammerhead:

[russwest0]

Not once did I say nor imply Miami wasn't the best team but yall still somehow got offended. :facepalm

Get your panties out of a bunch.

[sportjames23]

Bron stans sensitive. :lol

Bron stans sensitive. :lol

Don't you got some shoes to shine at the airport, ******?

[RagaZ]

:roll: :roll: at you crying in the OKC-Memphis game thread and now this post. Don't worry about Miami's path.

If we are not good enough I am sure one of these superior Western Conference teams will wipe the floor with us...like the last two years in the Finals.

[oarabbus]

Come on people, ANY team in the West is making it to the ECF. They are BREEZING to the ECF (as long as they don't play Miami on the way)

[Demitri98]

The Thunder would steamroll to the Finals if they and Miami switched spots. The only team that could maybe give them some trouble is Chicago.

[ArbitraryWater]

Dont think they could get past the Nets http://oi44.tinypic.com/21n3apx.jpg

[red1]

dunno about the other teams but can say with certainty that the thunder would lose to the bobcats

[kamil]

Yep

[AnaheimLakers24]

all sweep. bra will struggle like always

[AnaheimLakers24]

Yep
would still smash vigorously

[NumberSix]

:pimp:

[Doranku]

Every West playoff team would make the finals if they played in the East. The Suns would also make the finals if they were in the East.

[kamil]

Yep

Damn, what happened to her? She ballooned.

[ArbitraryWater]

Damn, what happened to her? She ballooned.

Well go ahead then, make her Christina Aguilera*

Spurs are on the the only western team I like to watch.

[lilgodfather1]

I'm sorry maybe I don't understand the point here, but we are thinking that the heat will play the lowest possible seeded teams in the playoffs? Serious question, has that ever happened? The only year it could have happened would be when gsw beat dallas right? It didn't happen then either.

Everyone on here has an agenda I guess.

[All Net]

All of them

That what you want to hear?

OP is just trying to make himself feel better about Durant's upcoming annual playoff choke. :oldlol:
