The West is WEAK

[Wa88iors]

Honestly, the West has not been a strong conference since KD joined the Warriors in 2017.

Warriors are down Cousins, KD, and Iggy for this last game and they still beat their competition in the WCF (SWEPT overall).

The West is Weak.

Warriors only competition in 5 years has been from the East

The 17' Warriors 12-0'd the weak west but luckily the thicc east was able to stop that freight train from going 16-0 for another landslide record.

In 2015 the East without Kyrie or Love was able to win 2 games
In 2016 well yeah you know
In 2017 see above
In 2019 we see their path to Finals is Clippers, Rockets, and Blazers

The West is WEAK - what does this say about LeMissedPlayoffs?

No one cares about 40 win teams. What matters is the 76ers and Celtics > Blazers

Blazers, Clippers, Spurs & Nuggets could have beat the Sixers, Raptors or Celtics in a series. Rockets would be favorites against Milwaukee. Nuggets - Bucks would also be a tough match-up.

Celtics are dysfunctional. Philly is heavily dependent on Embids health and they have their own chemistry issues.

I see no reason to think they would beat Portland in a series.

This idiot never fails to outdo his prior stupid thread

It took 48 wins just to make the playoffs in the West. 2 legit powerhouses at the top of the conference in GS and Houston. 14 of the 15 teams were genuinely competitive teams that you would have to play well against to beat. Which is simply unheard of.

The West was better than EVER in its history this season.

Clippers are tough. They just don't have enough consistent shooting. They play defense and they rebound.

I like the way the clips are built they just need maybe 1 or 2 more pcs. to compete.

Yikes

Last year GS had only 1 sweep, in the Finals. Houston took them to 7 games.

GSW are just that good.

Want to know how tough the west is? Ask Lebron.

The Blazers are trash bro. Heck, the Lakers would've definitely taken these Warriors to 6.

Most teams under these rules will look like trash vs GSW.

There are a few exceptions though.

I think Milwaukee has enough shooting and length to make the finals competitive. Their defense is great as well.

2015?
2016?
2017?

[dunksby]

Clippers are dogged and the Rockets are a perennial finals team in the east, it's only the Blazers who shat the bed, if Jokic had a consistent 2nd option the WCF would have been a whole different story.
