East also has one 0 win team but you fail to mention that because of your blatant agend.....wait:(

[lilteapot]

really disappointed in charlotte so far. i thought they'd be so much better.

[Sakkreth]

Atleeast Grizzlies isn't Vancouver team anymore :oldlol:

[ZMonkey11]

Sterns fault. That's what happens when you put a bunch of good teams in a conference. They beat each other up.

Edit:

I need to clarify that I meant the East was full of good teams beating up on each other and that is why their records are so poor. This was a poor attempt at sarcasm and can be misconstrued. My apologies to Silver.

[Milbuck]

A win tonight and we'd have reached 2/3 of our win total from last season...in one month :oldlol:

[Magic731]

Breaking news: East is shit. West is good.

Wow OP thanks for opening my eyes.

[Bcogswell]

Raptors #1

[Qwyjibo]

On behalf of the Raptors organization, I apologize for being so incredibly good and not giving the rest of the East a chance.

[kwajo]

Both conferences have a 13 win team, seems even to me :cheers:

[NattyPButter]

You ppl do know that the West plays most against themselves right and so does the East? So wouldn't that make the West weak? Grizzlies are 9-0 against the West and only been beat by East teams...yep sounds like the West is weak.

[BIZARRO]

And the West really in theory has another 10 win team as well, as when the Thunder get Durant and Russ back, they're gonna kill it.

Yes, the West is loaded. :pimp:

The lakers are like 0-9 against the west right now and 2-0 against the east.

:biggums:
almost every team in the east has a negative record.

[NattyPButter]

:biggums:
almost every team in the east has a negative record.

because every team in the east is mostly playing among themselves. Just look at the conference records

I'm not talking about the past 15 years...i'm talking about now. The West has been playing mostly teams in the West...is that getting through of that thick head?

The West is 55-23 versus the East this year.

Close to a .700 winning percentage.

But please, don't let stats get in the way of your terrible argument.

:wtf: did you just give me a link to the standings?
what did op do in his first post?
how does playing against themselves give them all negative records?
wtf is going on

[AussieG]

They should take the 2 leftover teams from the West that miss the playoffs and put them in the East playoffs at 7 and 8. But they can't do that because they'd probably win the ECF from 8th seed and it'd be West vs West in the finals. :lol

[TheMilkyBarKid]

Likewise, I do think MKG being out hasn't helped either, but still well below expectations.

[Bird]

That ether. How is this even an argument.. Fk, cavs fans gonna cav.

If I had the will, I'd check the last ten years and bet that the West has won at least 60% of all games against the East in that time frame.

Are you stupid? You have to be stupid. Yes they more often than not play against East teams. What about when they don't? They play west teams and they LOSE the majority of the time.

[Optimus Prime]

There is a reason it's called The Least.

[ballinhun8]

As a Bulls fan, I apologize for the latter half of the Least.

Who cares?

The East has the best team in the league.

[DMAVS41]

And that would be?

[Eric Cartman]

And that would be?

Raptors.

[DMAVS41]

Raptors.

I do think the Raps are really strong, but I'd take at least 5 teams over them in a playoff series.

[Eric Cartman]

Regular season, Raptors get the best record.

Come playoff time? The lack of experience will kill them against a team like the Bulls, hell maybe even the Cavs.

Gotta agree with you tha teams like Memphis and GS are positioned better in that aspect.

Yea...if we are going solely off of regular season record then they might do that, but that isn't how I judge a team.

Especially when said team plays in the East.

This. We've been on a nice run but:

Spurs
Warriors
Grizzlies
Mavericks
Thunder (healthy)
Houston
Portland

Are all better teams. We do have the advantage of being in the east but honestly come playoff time I wouldn't bet on us over Chicago/Cleveland either.
