The East teams in the 7-10 play-in spots have a higher winning % than the same 7-10 teams in the West. It's called parity which is good for the league. The East has closed the gap and that's a fact, not media-driven.
I'm all for the parity and I do feel this is the most parity we've seen in a long long time but those first two stats are very misleading...the 2019 Raptors beat like 40% of the Warriors team in the finals and you're punishing the west in that second stat for the incredible success the Suns have had this year. The 6th seed in both conferences had the same record until last night.
