The east is weak again

A) Be an obsessed dikkriding Jordan stan using “Weak East” as a bashing point when you’re GOAT played in the weakest east OAT Due to expansion and being in a transitionin era when older stars were washed and on their way out, and newer guys hadn’t been drafted yetc and had a top 5 player to help him along the way and couldn’t win in a “weak east” without him.

B) Call it a weak east when In the last 15 years, 6 “weak” Eastern teams have won the ship and 8 “almighty” West teams have won. For such a big skill gap between the two conferences, in a series where the two best teams from each conference wins, the gap is not that big. Especially considering that 07’ Cavs team probably isn’t there without Bron showing out.

C) Say it’s a weak East when one of the premiere players can’t sniff the playoffs without adding the greatest player of all time to his team

D) say It’s a weak conference as if the West isn’t and hasn’t been 2 team race every year since 2010 as well.

E) dikkride, brehs.

A. THE WEAK EAST ARGUMENT DOESNT WORK WITH JORDAN
BECAUSE HES 6-0 AGAINST THE WEST
IN THE FINALS DUMB fukk.
WHATS BRONS RECORD VS THE WEST?

B. WHY ARE WE GOING BACK 15 YEARS
WHEN THIS IS THE WEAKEST EAST SINCE 2007?

SINCE 07
BRON GOT 3 WITH THE MOST LOADED ROSTERS IN THE NBA.
CELTICS GOT 1 WITH THE MOST LOADED ROSTER IN THE NBA.

C. KYRIE IS A ONE DEMENSIONAL ELITE SCORER.
HES NOT A LEADER.

D. WEST HAS HAD 4 DIFFERENT NBA CHAMPS SINCE 2010.
BRON SUPERTEAMS ARE THE ONLY TEAMS IN THE EAST THAT HAVE WON SINCE 2010.

E. YOU DID ALL THAT SEARCHING
AND QUOTING JUST TO GET SHOT DOWN.

nikkas want the East to NOT be weak in order to make Bron look better

There's no need for that. He is what he is. Don't prop up the East to do that.

 

[Standing on business]

It's what people say about the east so can we start saying the same thing about the west. The past 6 six years it's only been two different teams from the west in the finals so what's the difference

What do you think

Lebron has been to the finals for 7 years in a row...

A "scrappy" pacers team with barely offensive rhythm

A shell shocked raptors team that chokes every year

And now a celtics team that plays hard but doesnt have kyrie n hayward

Cavs doubled oladipo n derozan and they looked fukkn lost

"the West is stronger than the East" is only a myth.

Historically, the west has been LA, San Antonio, Houston for a couple years and GSW now. Folks talk like every year any team in the west has a chance to win when in reality its GSW and everyone else, and 20 years ago it was LA, San Antonio and everyone else.

Pick a narrative and stick with it

 

[DillaTUDE]

OKC make the NBA Finals this year if they play in the East and judging by the Celtics success in these playoffs with no Kyrie or Hayward, then the Spurs w/no Kawhi also make the Conference Finals if they play in the East.

The East is at the lowest point that it's ever been and that's not meant to slight LeBron as his team this season isn't as strong as it has been in recent years, but if he was playing in the West he'd probably be out in Round 1.

Pelicans and jazz would be heavy favorite to make the finals if they played in the east. Don’t let how stacked and good GS is cloud the fact the western conference teams are strongner

Or maybe just maybe Lebron is that fukking good.

Take away the super warriors last year and Lebron is 3 and 3 against the west this decade
One of those Ls came without his #2 and #3 in Kyrie and Love
Hes beaten the top west teams in warriors spurs and thunder

 

[ELESDEE616]

Nick Wright called it

 

[FAH1223]

Agreed. The Miami Wades vs the Sixers has been the best series so far
