They're a combined 14-7 (with Orlando going 7-3, Detroit going 3-4, and Boston going 3-0 against the west)
Now if you look at the West elite (Spurs, Suns, and Jazz)
Spurs 5-0 against the east
Suns 8-1 against the east
Jazz 6-3 against the east
There are still more quality teams in the west than the east. Therefore stronger. I'm not knocking the east elite, just pointing out that the east as a whole is weaker than the west as a whole. If they were better, they would hand the West elite more losses.
