Tough life in the Metropolitan division

They don't even have the most potent offense in Pennsylvania.

They dont even have the most potent offense on their team.

Wait ... what?

The division has crumbled as the season went on.

This year, only 2 teams have more than 70 points. On this date last year, 4 teams had 77 points or more. That's a big swing.

It kind of makes sense that this is happening though. There weren't a ton of intradivision games at the beginning of the year. Now that the teams are playing each other the points are coming back down from the start of the season because everyone is beating everyone else.

Yes but it doesn't explain the difference in points for team this year vs last year.

But for sure when games are on, we all are praying for non 3 point games.

Because teams like Carolina and New Jersey aren't pushovers anymore. Lot more parity in this division.

It's more impressive that the bottom five in the conference are Atlantic teams.
