Lol indiana only lost 4 games to that so called eastern conference. so i'm not sure how you arrive at this conclusion that the rest of the east is on the Pacers level
Celtics were the victim of a couple of big miracle comebacks by the Knicks, who subsequently suffered the same fate to the Pacers, in what was a pretty competitive series. Then Tatum goes down with an injury. Cavs were crippled by injuries.
All of these teams in reality were around the same level, and I would say after OKC, they were the 4 best teams in the league by the end of the regular season.
You are very biased. You say the east teams were good but had injuries, but completely ignore that Curry was injured. It shows your bias. The reason OKC did so well in the west is mainly due to the fact that warriors knocked the #2 seed out and then Curry got injured which allowed the wolves to pass through them. You are also saying things like Celtics were suffering miracle comebacks but there's a reason those comebacks happen. It's because they weren't that good.
Also, the nuggest took the thunder to 7. They are almost as good as them. So to say the nuggets aren't on the Knicks/Celtics level is rididculouis and I"m actually starting to think you are trolling because it's such a laughable take to not include the Nuggets.
Nah, the West is just mid this year, despite the talking heads trying to hype up all of the has-beens in the west.
