and I laughed when you said they're schedule is getting "tougher"....
through their first 16 games, they have beaten 15 teams that are sub .500 and ONE team that is actually playing .500 basketball, which happens to be Detroit....
they've played two teams that were actually worth a shit in the last week - the Clippers and the Spurs - they split the two.
now they have the Thunder. if they beat the Thunder, I might consider them a little stronger than before....

they could cruise through the season and make the playoffs while having to play playoff teams that are 10 games under .500
out West, all the playoff teams are 3 or 4 games over .500 with actual talent.
any league that has the Wizards, Bobcats and Cavs in the playoffs makes me giggle.....
terrible terrible conference.....

They've only "played
two teams" worth anything in the last week?
So Portland is not worth anything?
They ROCKED the Spurs, in San Antonio.
What else do they need to prove to you?
They can only win the games that are put in front of them and thus far, it doesn't really matter if it's a team from the East or West.
