Another name synonymous for the Eastern Conference of the National Basketball Association(NBA) that is ridiculed by the Western Conference for their subpar team records and easy path to the NBA Finals every year. The conference is often plagued with the lack of talent and often top-heavy records that allows the same teams such as the 2010-14 Miami Heat to reach the NBA Finals year to year with minimal or no real competition. The disparity is often attributed to Michael Jordan's second retirement from the Chicago Bulls in 1998.
Joe: Did you hear that the Miami Heat went to four straight finals? Now that's an impressive feat only done three times before.
Miller: Yeah, but they play in the Leastern Conference so it's not that impressive with how easy they had it out there. Now had they gone to four straight finals in the Western Conference that would be no doubt an impressive feat. Just look at the 9th seed 2013-14 Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference, they would have been a 3rd seed in the Leastern Conference.
Joe: When you put it like that I guess you're right.

Get the CONFIRMED BACHELOR mug.A "Concerned American", is one who has had enough of the government's intrusion into their "daily" lives, some one who has watched the "decline" of the peoples Rights, as defined by the original writers of the Constitution. Who has seen the government being taken over by the controlling interests of money hungry corporations, who now are actually in control of the government. A "Concerned American", is one who will speak out against the tyranny which is starting to engulf this country, and turn it into a third wold mud puddle where the "rich" will always have, and the poor get poorer and poorer. A "concerned American is one who will defend himself against these oppressions, just as the founding fathers did against a tyrannical British rule. A concerned American will not allow the government to "brainwash" our children into placidity about their lives, and their place in the world. A "Concerned American" will be willing to defend his home against the government force that will be placed into this country, by illegal means to squelch any form of rebellion, or resistance, an example being of the "Police State" we are now experiencing, where law enforcement now can do "no wrong",A "concerned American", will stand up for what he believes in his heart to be true, and fair, even if it costs him his "freedom" from an oppressive government.
