a stacked up Miami team at that, dudes should've swept the whole eastern conference. 
I mean they got to the finals every single year, that's pretty impressive. You don't get extra points for sweeping teams. They didn't lose a single playoff series against an eastern conference team, which is dominant.
50% vs western teams though, far from dominant 
 
This. It's going to be tough for mozgov and TT on the perimeter. And if you go small trillsap will eat
Yup. They'll have to go with Lebron playing the 4 a lot, and that's just not going to work out in the cavs favor. This is the series where having love would help. Still would pick ATL though.
 
The regular season is such a poor evaluation method to determine how an eastern conference team would manage against a western conference team in the playoffs.

In all likelihood, if a team like Washington played in the west, they probably wouldn't have even made the playoffs.

But they don't, so it doesn't matter.

I agree. It's no more a indicator than a guess as to what would happen if they did play in the West.
 
I dont think Atlanta will win unless kyrie is still hurt

Why not? They are a really good three point shooting team with bigs who can extend all the way out to the three point line. Especially without Love, The cavs just don't have the personel to keep up with Atlanta's ball / player movement, or take advantage of their lack of size on the other end. 

One word Lebron, they can't match up with the Hawks good but what we exposed the cavs will exploit

The Hawks dont really have that player to take over in crunch time and its gonna haunt them
 
Dudes talking about Nate Robinson is an allstar

Pathetic
Hey 34% believe a 52yr old Michael Jordan could beat Lebron James so i'm not surprised

They weren't dominant against the west, that's fair to say. But they were dominant against the east, and that's impressive no matter how you slice it. 4 straight finals appearances.
everyone is dominant against the east

clippers first round matchup this year was tougher than any east team lebron has ever faced except for boston 
 
the west is obviously stronger than the east, but you can't say the Hawks/Cavs don't deserve to be in the Finals because of where their located.

Everyone isn't dominant against the East. Miami did win 2 championships

and that last point is true. Don't know what you're trying to get at by saying that.

That team defense will neutralize Lebron and he'll look a lot like how he looked against SAS this season and last.

lakers are 5-2 vs the best teams in the east

spurs are 5-1 vs the best teams in the east

i would say thats pretty dominant, no surprise lebron is able to dominate vs the average east teams every year

in his 12 years in the league he's faced a team above .500 4 times in the first round, the highest win % team being the knicks

I'm not saying based on where they are located at, i'm basing on skill level and performance

you put any team from the East say against any team in the west beside the pelicans, i guarantee they wont get past the 2nd round that's all
