    I don't care about what conference he belongs. After all, the NBA champion is the champion of the entire NBA, not just the East (or West).
    Well as multiple times proven, the collusion thing would only be a moral problem people have.... again, individuals cannot collude, go read a dictionary of the word's definition.

    The East of the 90s (as well as the NBA as a whole in the 90s) was far stronger than the pathetic piece of shit it is today. Ya'll haters just gonna have to accept that fact.

    So whenever you don't post your rolling smileys, you fail horribly I see?

    The 1991 Pistons were quite clearly past their prime, and so were the Celtics... Bird and the Team themself said, with that record, they wouldn't have done shit in the 80's... Your boy played in the weaker conference.

    Both teams didnt matter during MJ's reign.

    Now you want to have REGGIE MILLER'S Pacers, DAUGHERTY's Cavs, as Competition?

    Good one. It was a poor conference. accept it.

    all these stats (not just yours, in general) yet the East's team is the defending champions 2 years running...the arguments have no merit if they (the West) cannot finish the deed to the end. it's pretty simple to grasp, really...all this "strength of the west" talk yet they fall short of the title...pretty embarrassing, no?

    I'm trying to figure out a difference between the 2?

    How can it be the worst head to head against the West, but only the 2nd worst EC winning % ever?

    Don't bet on it. People still remember how weak the 80's West was nearly 30 years later.

    You speak as if you are old enough to have seen Reggie's Pacers.

    Ask any Indiana fan who was old enough and they'd tell you that Pacers team would have eviscerated the current dross that the Heat have found challenging thr past few years.
