The division has 4 of the last 10 les, and it's cursed because the last 2 of the 4 came from the second place team instead of the first place team?
Since it first began in '05 (in which the Spurs won the le), there hasn't been a successful playoff team that wins the southwest.
2006: Spurs (lose to 2nd place Dallas in epic fashion)
2007: Mavericks (67-15, choke in first round. 2nd place Spurs win le)
2008: Hornets (CP3 breakout year, lose to 2nd place Spurs in 7 games)
2009: Spurs (first round loss to rival Dallas in 5(!) games)
2010: Dallas (first round loss to rival Spurs in 6 games)
2011: Spurs (LOL), 2nd place Dallas wins le
2012: Spurs (win 20 straight, backdoor swept LOL)
The thing is, this is supposedly the most compe ive division in the NBA since the 6-division era.

that's exactly the point. most compe ive division - everyone has a good matchup.
With Anthony Davis in NO the Rockets will be over .500 AND still lose a playoff spot barring a trade for Gasol or some .
