Portland’s not your typical sub .500 team.

[Axe]

Well, am just glad that they overtook memphis to take the last seed.

[scuzzy]

That's the outcome when your conference is balanced up and down with talent, teams hovering around .500

West was 1-13 teams deep this year, loaded

Meanwhile last season an identical portland team played in the WCF

[ArbitraryWater]

I think that fact alone probably shows this being the GOAT Conference

They absolutely shit on half the 50 win teams from 08-10, would be 3rd seed those years

:applause:

Portland vs West: 20-27

Portland vs East: 15-12

With Nurkic healthy it isn't the same team from the regular-season.

At full strength, Portland is more of 3 or 4 seed. And win 50+ easily.
