Why does Lebron always play in the weaker conference?

[nineiron]

when he was in the east, the east was trash.

now that he's in the west, the east is stacked.

why?

Well it's the Conference trophy that matters.

[SouBeachTalents]

The West has teams with the 3 best records in the league.

because they're playing in a weaker conference. a 6th seed in the west would be a 9th or 10th seed in the east.

It's literally a 1-2 game difference between the seeds in each conference right now, with over 2/3 of the season still to play, an extremely negligible difference. Not to mention there's several Western contenders missing key players right now (Kawhi, Murray, Klay etc.), who if they come back at full strength will significantly bolster their teams.

East has the MVP's right now.

[TheGoatest]

He still beat the champions of the opposite conference 4 times in a 7 game series while being the series MVP on proper MVP numbers. Meanwhile, in the 90s, both conferences east AND west were trash, and no playoff/finals series wins are legit.

The West has the reigning MVP and the soon to be 3x MVP in Curry

After he got swept in his finals debut and lost in a finals series he was heavily favored on, that is.

"None of them were legit"

Says the dup who thinks the 1994 chicago bulls were a very capable team and are playoff contenders. :oldlol:

Yes, and who got screwed out of that contention by one of the worst calls in history, just because they didn't have a Michael Jordan on their roster:

you could have easily given those MVPs to Ray Allen, Kyrie, Wade and AD.

now that he's in the west, the east is stacked.

why?

It's where he got drafted to man. It's not he chose to get drafted into the weaker conference.

And when he went to the lakers the east wasn't this good.

The West got the three best teams in the NBA.
OP you are a waste of space.

outside of those 3 teams the conference is bad. also, the 3 top teams in the east are better than the 3 top teams in the west. the top 3 in the west have better records because they're playing mostly bad west teams. (like the FLakers)

[bullettooth]

LeShortcut James....

Nothing new for this overrated bum. It's the only way he's be able to get to the finals as many times as he has and the fact that he's lost SIX times is evidence that he's not as great as some Bran nut huggers make him out to be (though really, that's been obvious since 2011).

The 4th seed in the west has the exact same record as the 4th seed in the east. Meanwhile the 3rd best record in the west has a better record than the #1 seed in the east. The east also has the two teams with the worst records in the league. Stay desperate. :oldlol:

[FireDavidKahn]

Because all the good players run to the other conference so they have a better chance of actually getting to the Finals.

[Baller789]

Because all the good players run to the other conference so they have a better chance of actually getting to the Finals.

So if all the good players run to the other Conference, wouldn't that make that Conference stronger?

You seem to be confused.
