The media is biased towards teams with big market stars like the Nuggets, Rockets, Heat, Cavs, etc.

The media is biased against every team in the sense that "media" covers every single person in the media, and there will always be somebody in the media against one's team. On the same token saying "the media is against my team" in reference to the entire media is pretty damn stupid.

The Hornets would easily be the top seed in the west, but the Media wants a big market team like the Lakers to have the top spot.....

Yeah i'm surprised the Hornets aren't even getting that much love. They go from being a lottery team, to a top seed in the league. I remember when the Suns did that in 04-05 (I think), everyone was on their nuts.
