Not quite. The East was very good in the mid- to late-90s.
True. Still 15 years of dominance is a long time. And the current lottery system actually hurts many eastern teams. Teams with bad records make the playoffs and lose a chance at the lottery. Decent teams with better records than the 8 and sometimes 7 and 6 seed from the East get a lottery pick. Each team has their own plane. Flights are easier. They should divide the games more evenly and take the top 16 teams in the playoffs.
