Western Conference

The western conference with the exception of the Spurs and Clippers series, compiled a bunch of one-sided match ups. Three out of the four losing teams in the conference only managed to win a single game in their respective series. This does not really provide good basketball; fans want to see competition and excitement. A measly four or five game series does not provide competition and excitement. Usually a series that has a team dominating it won’t attract too much attention but the Warriors sweep of the Pelicans actually had some people buzzing.

Well the first week of the NBA playoffs is in the books. A lot of teams have dominated their first games and others not so much.
