That's quite the long term disparity. What the hell happened in 08-09 again...

The Cavs, Celtics, and Magic all won 59+ games, while only the Lakers won over 55 in the west

[Quickening]

who cares

[MMM]

That's quite the long term disparity. What the hell happened in 08-09 again...

Celtics, Cavs and Magic were all around 60 wins

The Hawks had a solid team and the 1st round exits teams were decent

The Bulls were on the upcoming, Bosh led Raps, Wade has a terrific season iirc

That went 33-49

[Uncle Drew]

That went 33-49

Which is really good for a 13 seed.

[Lebronxrings]

lol at the wEAKest conference aka no defense. Alot of those stats are inflated cuz of the 76ers, bucks, magic and other teams that tanked.

The West win percentage top 8 vs top 8 is actually higher....

[MMM]

That went 33-49

Confused the 09 team with the 08 team

Didn't Bosh get hurt in 09 though.

[SamuraiSWISH]

We get it. The west has had the lion's share of power since the on set of the 2000s when they got Shaq, Duncan, KG, and Kobe nearly all at once.

You're not explaining anything new to us. It's an obvious thing that has been beaten to death. Move on. The 80s West was horrific too.

[guy]

Well, this year and last year are pretty bad. But in general, those numbers overall show the disparity over the last 15 years isn't nearly as wide as people make it out to be.

Do the math. First off, the average team is going to be 26-26 vs. their own conference. You apply those %s for the average team vs the other conference, and rounded correctly, the East is 13-17 vs the West and the West is 17-13 vs the East. So on average, an EC team is 39-43 and a WC team is 43-39. That's not very far from 41-41, which would be the case for both conferences if they were equal.

Now, what people obviously love to ask is how teams would perform if they were in the other conference. Just apply the %s again, and they'd be 15-15 against the other conference (the conference they are really in currently), and EC teams would be 22-30 on average vs WC teams if they were in the West meaning 37-45 overall, and the WC teams would 30-22 on average vs EC teams if they were in the East meaning 45-37 overall.

So in general, what this means is that this HUGE supposed advantage that EC teams have gotten over this timeframe by getting to play in the East is a mere 2 game increase in wins (39 vs 37) while the WC teams are down by 2 games in wins (45 vs 43).

So with that being the case, this idea that significant changes need to be made based on the last 15 years is ridiculous.
