So mad at the east right now. They are making LBJ look even more amazing. I wish LBJ would play in the west just to see what real competition is.
and do what? play a broken Spurs team? The only competition would've been Golden State and Houston. Sure, the rest of the east is a joke and Boston would probably be a 5 or 6 seed in the West, but even then, the best two teams in the league are still Golden State and Cleveland. The finals would be public humiliation and the most boring thing in the world if Boston, Washington, or Toronto made it to the finals against Golden State or even Cleveland.
I don't think Kawhi sits out if he's capable of playing basketball. If a star sits out a game this big, it's a pretty safe bet they're incapable of playing basketball in their condition

A broken spurs or a healthy houston are better than all the east minus Cleveland. Spurs w Kawhi can beat Cleveland. They are one of the best teams in the league protecting the three point line.

I said it when it happened and I say it again ... Durant move to Golden State was bad for the NBA. In my opinion, two superteams can destroy a league in terms of excitement. The only relevant games will be the Finals. That is bad for the league.
