If the Warriors stay healthy this team is 1-2 seed, no homer.
If the Clippers win the division then the Dubs can't be higher than a 4, right?

naw they changed that rule, now division winners are just assured one of the top 4 spots

So one random 2nd place team could be higher than two division winners? That's cool but also weird. Why does the NBA even have divisions at this point.

ya h8 divisions and conferences so dumb, w that extra team in the top four the seeding usually works out right especially since the team w best record gets home court regardless so like if the 4/5 are flip flopped it doesn't matter

Has the 3/6 flip flopped, that would be dope.

conferences make sense imo, divisions are completely pointless

the problem w conferences is imho that half the time you have the two best teams playing in the conference championship instead of the finals

yeah tru

isnt that the same as in all the major sports though? only difference being its not a geographical divide in mlb/nfl
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 20:32 (ten years ago) link
yeah its a bad idea in those sports too
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 20:38 (ten years ago) link
there's no real reason for sports to have conferences but i do feel like leagues need some sort of organizational structure
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 5 November 2013 20:44 (ten years ago) link
but like in the nba, even diehard fans have no idea which team is in which division
that's totally different than the nfl or mlb
espn.com's default standings page in the nba displays by conference
