You can keep saying it, but you'll be wrong each time.
From 2006-07 to 2013-14, the 8th seed in the East was only above .500 once (35-31 in strike year) in East. West #8 never .500 or below. worst was was 42-40. Below are the comparisons each year with East team on left from 06-07 to 13-14
40-42 42-40 only year close other than strike, but top 5 in W ranged from 50-67 wins, 43-53 in E
37-45 50-32
39-43 48-34
41-41 50-32
37-45 46-36
35-31 36-30
38-44 45-37
38-44 49-33
I said the West was stronger.
Not enough stronger to justify the fact that Love was only able to win more than 26 games once in his Minnesota tenure. And the year he was hurt they won 31.
Bosh’s supporting cast in toronto was not very good either. Certainly not better than what Love had his last year in Minnesota.
And while the West was stronger, it wasn’t by enough to make up for the 10 wins a year difference.
