    Lol.

    Even the crippled Thunder would beat half the teams of the east.

    Spurs,Grizzlies,Clippers would go on a raping spree in the east(name me one team that could beat them?)

    By your logic, Cavs are having a very tough road to the finals.
    They are facing 50 and 60 wins teams with injured 2nd and 3rd options.
    This should be one of the toughest road to the finals ever...by your logic.
    Do you really think that Bulls is a better team that the Grizzlies or the Hawks is better than the Rockets?
    Winning 50 in the West and in the East have a different weight.

    Good job for admitting that Heat didn't benefit from playing in EC in 2012 in 2013.

    How about 60?
    Isn't it great that Cavs are competing against a 60 wins team without their 2nd and 3rd option?

    You're right. The Eastern Conference is an irrelevant wasteland compared to the West.

    You guys are missing the point

    You dummys are the same guys that try and pull the "It only matters if you win in the finals" while also saying "They had an easy as **** path to the east so that ring has an asterix"

    If it is all about winning in the finals then that nullifies the path there

    Even though difficulty through the conference playoff rounds IS NOT BASED ON TEAM RECORD. I will repeat that. IT IS NOT BASED ON TEAM RECORD. It is based on the results in the series. Same as the west. Heat got taken to 7 games multiple times during their 2peat. Majority of which occured IN THE EASTERN PLAYOFFS. They even backdoor SWEPT the best from the west in 2012...

    The reality of this forum is that most wants to talk about hypothetical situations because they know they can't be proven wrong.
    They never talk about actual facts.
    When they talk actual facts, they get owned, just like I owned Hoopsjones (whatever his name is) in the other thread.
