I mean if I give you the example I want you're just gonna say it's an excuse so......When has it ever mattered? Give me a specific year when the Eastern team won becuz the Western team was too tired/beat up/mentally fatigued/ whatever

Do you honestly think there is no benefit to having an easier path to the finals at all? Word

If you can't get to the finals you can't win the finals that's why being in the east is important. It's an easier path. More opportunities. In the west, each step is another legit contender that might fukk up your year.
