2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

I'm talking about record.....not h2h.

As I said in my previous post, bottom of the west (teams 9-15) are much better than 9-15 in the East. Playing the Spurs and Blazers is not the same as playing the Pistons and Bulls. Spurs and Blazers are much better teams

Also there is more digging to do then looking at the record? How many of those West teams actually played several games against the top of the East?

The best way to actually judge my statement is to look at the top 7 in both conference record against each other.

I do think the gap has gotten smaller over the past few years, but the other thing you have to consider is record of top teams in East is enhanced because the bottom teams are so much worse than bottom teams in West.

Over the last decade, outside of maybe one or two teams, the East has been significantly weaker than the West.

This year the gap has gotten smaller.

That being said, the Warriors are probably going to do a complete 360 next year when Steph and Klay come back

agree gap is getting much smaller. FYI.....a 360 means they will be the same next year as this year.

Significantly weaker? The WC has a 6-4 edge in the Finals over the EC the last 10 years. That's not exactly dominace.

Guess a 360 from the 2018-19 season is possible.

And if I'm not mistaken each conference has 3 teams who have won over this time frame. OKC, GS, SA....Miami, Cavs, Toronto.

Did I miss anyone?

But some have said he is a better overall basketball player than Kevin Love, which is absurd.

Link?

Which is why I think looking at the H2H record of the top 6 in both the east and west record vs each other.

Head to head is the only way to tell who's better.

Like I said, don't hold your breath on that apology.

No doubt the gap has gotten smaller.

I just looked at the top 6 record vs each other. Very close to even if i counted correctly

The Mavs & Lakers. Did you watch the Buckeyes stink it up today?

Yeah, let's keep paring it down until you get the result you want.

Here ya go, I'll fast forward for you, it'll save time...

If we get all the way down the best team in each conference, the Bucks are 1-0 vs the Lakers.

East wins. Happy now?

 

[msgkings322]

I really like Lillard,. especially as a Bay Area guy
Shame he's wasting his career in Portland

no

Whoops...meant to include Mavs who beat Miami, not OKC who lost. Did forget LAL was this decade.

And, yes, saw OSU. Probably playing as most of us expected before the season. That team that climbed to #2 a mirage. Really wish they had a shooter like Diebler.

 

[msgkings322]

Is anyone ever going to apologize to the Eastern conference? The East has 6 teams on pace for 50+ wins at the halfway mark.....same as the west

Buckalis will

He posted that after you!

But sure, tlance thought so back then. Defendable. Obviously not now.

Draymond was a legit all-star but is definitely not worth much on a bad team. It is what it is.
