    The West wins more games than the east literally every year.

    2017 Boston led the east with 53 wins

    2016 The Spurs won 10 more games than the Cavs (who led the east) but finished 2nd in the West.

    2015 Brooklyn made the playoffs with 38 wins.

    We just saw the WCF opponent get swept by a team missing Durant/Cousins and Iggy for game 4...that's WEAK.

    That doesn't mean Portland wouldn't have beaten the dysfunctional Celtics and Sixers.

    Basically Durant ruined the integrity of the league.

    All Durant had to do was not compete against the Warriors for the Warriors to have zero challengers.

    Imagine if Kobe joined the early 2000 Spurs after losing to them in the playoffs...

    What kind of bullshit thread is this? The West is weak? So weak the GLOAT couldn't even make the playoffs?

    Where's LeBron.. shouldn't he be on his way to a 9th finals appearance??

    If you want to say Durant made a btch move I agree.

    But he started in the west and stayed in the west, which is the stronger conference and has been for a long time.

    West definitely > East last year. No argument there (unless I'm swinging off of LeGOAT's nut sack {which I often am}). But I stand by my comment about the Blazers this year.

    It speaks more reflectively about the Warriors than it does about their intraconference competition; I don't see how that's far-fetched to believe, considering they've vanquished their Finals competition just as convincingly as, if not more than, everyone they faced en route to it.

    Many of you somehow continue to undercredit this dynasty, who even great teams

    Yes the West is weak.

    The conference is FULL of pretenders besides the obvious Warriors.

    You are obviously missing my clearly Illustrated point. The only time the Warriors faced resistance was against eastern team during those three years

    Why does the West win more games than the East every year?

    252-198 this year.

    2015

    The Cavs lasted 5 games. I don't see that as resistance. Houston lasted 5 and Memphis lasted 6.

    I will concede Warriors had luck on their side that year with other teams having injuries.

    2016

    7 game series against OKC they easily could have lost. I think that counts as resistance.

    They didn't sweep anyone that year.

    They lost the Finals with a hobbled Curry and suspended Green.

    2017

    They lost only 1 game in the postseason. They got no resistance from anyone.
