The West has become severely overrated. Other than the Warriors, the Rockets are maybe the only other team in the West that would stand a chance against LeBron in a series (and I have serious doubts about them).
Truth is, the balance of power will be shifting to the East once the Warriors finally fall off, with the Sixers, Celtics and Giannis. [Reply]

You’re really letting the first two games agains the Raptors **** with your heads. No way you say this after/during the Pacers series.
The Rockets with home court would be HEAVY favorites.
And before the pacers series you’d have said different. We’re letting the raptors series cloud our heads but you get to let the pacers be the judge? [Reply]

No, I would not.
The Pacers series was more alarming than the Raptors series is encouraging though. The Raptors lost before the series even started.
The Pacers, like the Rockets, aren’t scared of Lebron. They both looked like bad matchups for the Cavs in the regular season. [Reply]

When do you plan on the Warriors falling off? If another team rises to the top it will be because of a dominant superstar and right now I don't see that star or that team. I'm not saying another team can't win a championship, but as far as longevity, I don't see that team...yet [Reply]
