as for getting rid of the east: no...the east has the young and up & coming talent...yea, it'll be ugly the next 2 years while they developing, but once they do, some of those west stars will come back east and join them, and/or will be older, so the east will be the dominate conference....
also, just cause a lot of talent went west, doesnt mean shyt...the warriors will still come out the west, so what does that say?...will people start to call the west weak if the warriors go to 5-6 straight finals?...they already went to 3.....but i guess as long as the reg season games between the 2-16 teams are exciting, people are happy lol....
