That's a playoff team in the East, maybe an 8 seed in the West

I don't think so. Look at the top teams in the West, No way the East beats those teams.

I would say it's pretty even right now for both conferences with teams in the west getting worse...

how about some numbers for this season so far:

There have been 56 games between the conferences this season. The Eastern Conference has won 34 of them while the Wester Conference has won 22. That gives the Eastern Conference a win% of 60.7 and of course the Western Conference one of 39.3%

The New Jersey Nets are the only Eastern Conference team so far that has not beaten someone from the West and they are the only team with more losses against the West than wins against the West.

I'm talking about the ''Elite'' of both Conferences. I think that the West has the better top teams in the league. And you can't prove points when each team has played a max off 14 games in the season.

probability of statistics says that you can.


As for the elite teams, the Lakers are the only "elite" team in the West. None of the others have been proven to be worth much. In the East, there are five teams with better records than the second best in the West. And the best team in the East beat the best in West for the NBA title just a few months ago and now have a lead of 2 wins to the Lakers though a deficit of 1 loss.

I agree what you say FOR NOW. But I believe that teams like NO, Houston, San Antonio will get back on top. Its also not very likely that Orlando will end up 2nd in the East. I'm 99% sure off that. An NBA Season is 82 games.

that means nothing. It's not even halfway through the season yet.

assuming everyone is healthy:

Lakers, Jazz, Rockets, Suns, Hornets>>>>>Boston, Orlando, Cleveland, whatever other shitty team you want


It is waaayyy too early to be looking at records to see who is better.

it may be early to determine which conference is better. right now, though, the Eastern Conference has a huge lead. btw, 56 out of 450 games is statistically significant.
