    This is just me sounding off and I mean no disrespect to the Eastern conference but is the Western Conference teams really THAT much better than the Eastern teams?

    The top 9 scorers in the league all come from the West, so this means one of two things.

    (1) - The Western conference is night and day better than the opposing conference

    or

    (2) - The Eastern Conference is well balanced and therefore harder to stack points and gain ground in the standings.

    Personally I believe it to be number 1 and sadly I think the finals will be a blow out, as any team that makes it out of playoffs from the West based on stats should technically slaughter the Eastern Team

    Opinions are welcomed and like I said I try to base this on stats not my own bias

    The east is very close, 4 teams in the west got eliminated before 1 team from the east did, it's just a tight race

    Haven't watched much of East vs East games which I should probably consider doing before passing judgement.

    Good insight tho, I didn't take into account the few teams already eliminated in the West, albeit we can stand to say Stockton and Chicago obviously have strong teams

    Honestly none of these opinions matter its playoffs time. Who cares what one side thinks of the other cause its your team agains the other no matter what side they on. Based on stats and such you could come up with alot of scenarios so lets just say good luck to all and not turn this into a stupid thread were everyone says im right not u lol good luck lets finish Season 1 strong as the season stats mean sfa in the post season

    If I was in the western conference I'd be a top scorer too... As a defence man.

    3 of the top scorers in the West are on what is basically a one line team, so there's that. Stockton is NOT built for a long run in the playoffs.

    It'll be interesting to watch though.
