Because a lot of teams in the NBA are terrible and remain so. They never emerge to become title contenders, at best simply also-rans.
You just described 40% of the NFL
44% percent before February.
Yet teams in the NFL get better and become contenders by getting in the playoffs. Favorites get knocked off all the time early in the playoffs and underdogs have a chance. How often is that true of the NBA?
