WOW. The East is trash.

Cavs were blown out by 40 by an injured #8,9 or 10 seed in the West.
Half the league is a joke. Only legit teams in the East are Orlando and Boston.
All the Lebron fans? Eat crow. In the West you'd be destroyed.

Welcome to the present time. Oh by the way, I heard Detroit is an ok team too.

Detroit was a championship team with Big Ben ... I love Chauncey and Sheed.
But in the West... they'd be below average at best.

And, Dallas got blown out by New Jersey today.

30 point loss for the Cavs, not 40. Lebron didn't play in the 4th quarter, and the Cavs as a team had a horrendous shooting night that was out of character. JR Smith was also unreasonably hot from downtown at 6/11 from 3.

Dallas in a question mark in the West ...
and did they lose by 40? When Dallas was down their best post-defender and supposed starting PG?
Nope.d
Cleveland - the East's big hope - got destroyed by the Nugs minus Nene and Atkins...
What a joke.

Record-wise they'd be FIRST in the West.
and below-average at best? You're joking, right?
The 8th seed (ie the median 50% in the West) is Denver at 31-19. Detroit is 37-13. You think there would be a six game swing or WORSE if Detroit were to switch conferences?
I hope you're joking.

Cleveland is missing 2 of their better players as well my friend. Also, LeBron has been taking alot of the slack, so fatigue does become a factor. This isnt a video game. Cleveland is a decent team out east.

It was 37 points+ when it mattered.
Good luck in the JV league.

cavs were without Varejao, Sasha, Drew and Gibson heading into the game, and then lost Z, Ira Newble and Damon Jones during the game. LeBron and Larry Hughes played hurt.
Because of injuries heading into the game, Eric Snow started at PG. He's only made 5 shots all season (0-5 tonight). Because of injuries during the game, Snow went back in for garbage time.
That's hardly representative of what the Cavs can do when they have their roster healthy.
btw: Where's your post about the Dallas/New Jersey game?

I love Lebron.
He would be an 'also ran' in the West, though.
Be an idiot - and claim that the Cavs would beat 1-8 in the West..
Go ahead ... sad fact is the #7,8,9,10 in the West would destroy most teams in the East.

as of now, nj at 22-29 isn't going to get a lottery pick while the rockets at 30-20 will
