Great comeback.......
 
No one on earth would agree with you that the west isn't more competitive. 
 
Its a lazy narrative thinking the west isn't more competitive.

competitive for what though

i think mexis point is that who cares about lower seeding? the warriors will win the west easy

where as the east has boston, philly, toronto, indy, and milwaukee fighting to make it

Right and I get that point. We aren't talking (or at least i'm not) about who's going to win the finals.
 
I'm talking about a competitive conference where it is more challenging to make the playoffs.
 
Because yes the west conference will be owned by Golden state where the east will have Boston, philly and Toronto fighting for the top spot. But i'm talking about competitiveness as how it would be more challenging to make the playoffs in the west.
 
Which was what Paulius was saying about the Lakers struggling to make the playoffs to which Mexi said thats lazy calling the west better.

It's a lazy narrative dude. The west has a bunch of good teams, but no threat to win it all besides gsw

Warriors are all alone

Houston likely will finish top 2 or 3 but obviously no one gives them a shot vs gsw

After that its a huge cluster of teams who could finish 3rd or easily 9th like last year

Quantity doesn't equal quality
But quantity is what matters when it comes to making the playoffs haha

Higher quantity of good teams = harder to make playoffs.

The East is what we wish the entire NBA was

Competitive

The warriors aren't losing unless they're not healthy. Bottom line

It's a shame Chris Paul got hurt

Still can't believe KD was up 3-1, blew it, and joined the 73-9 team that beat him

Sitting back and thinking about it, it's freaking crazy

And it'll only get crazier as time goes by

You're talking about championships. Paulius was talking about making the playoffs.
 
That's a HUGE difference. 
 
Yes it would be nice if the whole NBA was like the eastern conference and 5 different teams have a legit shot at a championship. But that's not what i'm talking about.

He probably already is or is about to be. I’m assuming it’s just a training camp deal.
