Mutombo was DPOY that season, and was Philly's MVP in that Bucks series.

But yeah, the East generally has sucked over the last decade and a half. Some great defenses each year, but certainly the weaker conference year-in-and-year-out.

Melo in the West goes to the conference Finals and in the east only gets past the first round once and misses the playoffs.

Might as well use Kobe barely making the Playoffs with a roster with 4 HOFs as example LMFAO

He didn't have AI, Camby, Nene, JR, Andre Miller, Steve Blake, Kenyon Martin, and George Karl all in or near their primes in the East.

Maybe Melo competed with a bunch of somebodies

I don't know why a ball hog intimidated a team for so long in a weak eastern climate. all the best were out west.

[deja vu]

You can't have two ballhogs and chuckers on one team. That's a recipe for disaster.

i could never see Melo conquering the league. he is a sidepiece. but phil over there, i want to see this. i doubt it tho.

Proof as to why basing an entire team on one player is absolutely retarded, just like the OP
