Well, are you surprised there's a conference with three sick teams and then a bunch of good teams? Happens in like every league. My point on the West is that there's no clearly elite team at all. and in the East there is? I've beaten the Bucks and 76ers(by a whole bunch) in the East. Outside of the Knicks there isn't an elite team either. We'll see if i'll split with the Knicks next sim too You realize that the Bucks are on pace for 61 wins and have Kobe and KG right? They're not elite? Seriously? |

Marion and Redd have carried us to 40 wins. Fantastic.

Seriously? you totally are making an argument about something I didn't say. My point is if the West is compromised by nothing but "average" teams why have we beaten supposed "elite" teams? |

I've played you twice this season and we split the series. |

Same thing I said to Mark. My point is if you guys are "elite" and the West is "average" how are we even splitting a season series? |

Shit happens. Random losses occur all the time in FBB. |

That's a really bad way of looking at it though. FBB is weird - I beat you earlier this season when you were far superior to me (albeit not as good as you are now), and I also beat the T'Wolves on the road on day 73. It doesn't change anything. Small sample sizes are small sample sizes. You need to look at an entire season to make the judgment on whether a not a team is "elite". The team's in the West are good (and I personally think Seattle is the best), but there is obviously no NYK or MIL there. You beating the Bucks doesn't take anything away from them - it's just one game. I'm sure you've lost bad games recently, and I'm sure the Bucks have won big games as well. The fact is, a 61 win team is an elite team, and you said quote "Outside of the Knicks there isn't an elite team either [in the East]". Yes there is. The Bucks would be by far the best team in the West. Do you seriously disagree with that? They're loaded.

29-47, what the heck?!?!?! We aren't even gonna have a top 5 pick now. dang.
At least we have the Pistons first. They are the 8th seed in the east.

We had a rough sim, and how valuable Toine is to our success showed - he missed 5 games and we went 1-4 over them.
Mavs might catch us for the #1 spot, it's up in the air right now, but I'm cool with either the first or third seed, and it's unlikely we drop farther than that.
Oh, and the West is CLEARLY the superior conference, and has been all season. My team has been the most consistent but the Mavs, Sonics, Grizzlies, Kings and Suns are all really good teams, and I would take them over any team in the East outside of the Bucks, Knicks and 76ers.

And we can't consider the 76ers elite if we don't consider my team elite - I had a better winning percentage than them the entire season until this last sim, and had a better winning percentage than the Bucks for a while as well. I don't think my team is an elite, but I think the whole league is chasing two teams - the difference is, the West has 5 teams with a shot at beating them and the East has one.

My team has also been much better since trading for QRich. We've firmly established ourself as the third best team in the league based off of win %'s, and our last sim features seven of our eight games at home (where we are tough to beat). |
