The east had/has a lot of parity, they just had a lot more injuries compared to the WestIts crazy that we might end up in a situation where any of Wests top 6 teams would be #2 in the East yet none of them would be within shouting distance from the Celtics.
Unheard of parity in one conference, and total dominance in the other.
Also the fact that 10th seed in west will have 45 or 46 wins is just bonkers (vs 36 or 37 in East).
Why are there no NBA games today?
Usually it's because of another big event, but I can't think of what that would be. I'm guessing it's do everyone plays their last game on the same day?
They get homecourt versus Orlando. They have to avoid the first round exit so it’s ideal. Would be bounced by whoever they play in the second round. If it’s Boston it gives them the “well at least you lost to the best team” kind of excuse. Not ideal for us to get the trade demand from Donny.Cavs sitting Mitchell and Garland just booted them into the Boston side of the bracket.
Oof.
lol, getting boinked by Boston in Round 2 isn't gonna make Don want to stay.They get homecourt versus Orlando. They have to avoid the first round exit so it’s ideal.
