6 of the 7 best teams in the league are from the West

[Heavincent]

Warriors
Spurs
Clippers
Thunder
Rockets
Grizzlies
Cavs (only title contender in the East)

Can someone tell me what the point of even watching the East is? One title contender in the whole conference

[Legends66NBA7]

Maybe people like watching the whole NBA ?


There's also only about 3-4 true title contenders every year.

I see 6 true contenders barring significant injuries.

Fact is, there aren't gonna be many high stake games or suspense in the Eastern conference this year.

And Cavs still finna win it all

[Mr. Jabbar]

its a terrible, terrible, joke that lebron not content with that shithole conference decides to collude every year.

NOT AN ALL TIME GREAT

fact.

Cavs, Chicago, Indiana, Miami and Atlanta?

But you're right, in reality, the Cavs are the likeliest to win it all out of those.

The best I can hope for is Cavs vs Miami ECF :).

It would be embarrassing if they didn't, considering they get 3 bye rounds while the western powerhouses kill each other.

Let's not be prisoners of the moment here, East is pretty stacked when you think about it

Chicago, Indiana, Miami and Atlanta?

All of them are mid tier treadmill teams.

East is pretty stacked = think


Nope.

[SyRyanYang]

Grizzlies aren't a true contender imo.

[ronnymac]

Miami has a nice starting lineup and can surprise but Wade is a huge question mark.

[Mawly-G]

Grizzlies don't belong in the same tier as those other teams, IMO.

Also, I think the Bulls will be a lot better this year and we all have yet to see this rejuvenated Miami team at full strength. The East should still be pretty interesting to watch come playoff time.

[ArbitraryWater]

Lol at the Bulls, Heat, Hawks not being loaded themselves.

Which of the Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, Thunder, or Rockets would those three teams beat?

In a seven game series, maybe the Bulls have a shot. Maybe. Im being generous.
