The division thing-- its just unamerican!

Great observation.

The Southwest is so loaded, it is entirely possible that the Spurs, Mavs, Grizz and maybe even the Rockets could all have a better record than a division winner.

This thing shouldn't just be patched up based on this seasons records; it should be resolved permanently.
