This has to be the weakest East since '01

Laker fans have some nerve. Worry about your own miserable ass team.

And the champ still came out the west

Ain't got shyt to do with you being wrong.

How is it weak? Indiana and Philly are talented as hell. Athletic as hell, but they're also young. Don't indict an entire conference cause you was wrong and thought 2 teams were just gonna blow through it.

Indiana had a better record than the Lakers at the end of the season and with the way Philly was playing they would've beaten everyone in the west with the exception of OKC, Memphis, LA and the Spurs. Even with that it would've been a toss up between them and LA/Memphis.

even tho the east is garbage look over at the west. they lost a combined 1 game this entire playoffs. just a bad year all around

A testament to how good those teams are.

Boston got pushed to the limit by a Philly team that can't score.

But the Heat went 6 against a team with no real star power.

Indy's got a solid team from top to bottom. Turnovers absolutely murdered them in that series. A great deal of them weren't forced either. Just dumb mistakes.

None of these teams in the East would win more than two games if they were in the West.

LA definitely would have come out of the East if they were over there. No doubt about it

This years east is trash because no rose or Howard

All these teams look like garbage.

@ Boston going seven with this terrible Philly team.

It's a shame went down because Chicago would have ROLLED to the ECF and I have no doubts they would have beat Miami.

OKC/SA in five in the Finals.

07 Cavs team was the worst Eastern champion in recent memory. Before that it was the 99 Knicks

 

[Da King]

The heat are actually quite trash, they have zero depth to speak of. The pacers are so bad offensively the heat were able to win with only 2 people scoring


And watching the celtics 76ers game made me sick

 

[JT-Money]

This season will be an complete debacle if the Spurs play the Celtics in the Finals. The only thing that can save this shytty NBA Season is Heat vs Thunder in the Finals.

seriously. i mean i know miami makes things tough when it comes to pressuring and passing the ball around but goddamn.

i dunno if the heat had them THAT shook or what...but i don't think i've ever seen a team throw more passes into the stands than indy did. a lot of them weren't even tough passes either. just regular shyt would end up in some rich season ticket owners hands.

Once D. Rose went down in the first playoff game, that was it for me. Playoffs went downhill to me after that.

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

Who ever wins OKC/Spurs series is winning the ship. Hell, I have no doubt Lakers would beat who ever comes from the east.

 

[mbewane]

we cant judge the true strength of these eastern teams because of the injuries to rose and bosh.

and Lin, Shumpert and B.Diddy.
