Seriously, why should it be so? Anybody know a reason?

Weather is nicer out west as other have said so they have an easier time with free agents.
Not as true recently but west owners were much better for a while too but that might just be by chance.
Other people says it goes in waves but it’s been pretty solidly west the last 25-ish years and the league has matured enough from the old days I don’t think it’ll have a major shift anytime soon.
It’s not. The 90s was basically ruled by the east. A good chunk of the 80s too. These things go in waves.
For that matter I don’t know if you remember but Miami had a pretty damn good run recently too
The Bulls ruled the 90s but, 7 of the top 10 teams as far as wins go where in the west.
Between the 1989-90 and 1998-99 seasons.
I was going to mention the Bulls, but it kind of goes without saying that they were different.
I think a lot of it has to do with the weather being nicer in the west. Also generally speaking, I feel like for what ever reason, owners/management is better in the west.
I don’t think there’s an actual reason, but as other said, it goes in waves - I can add my 2 cents by saying maybe taxes can help in favoriting some states over others
A lot of players like to live in (or are from) California.
