EASTERN CONFERENCE RUNDOWN
Who wins the East this year?...The new and improved Celtics, The always gritty Pistons, or Can Bron-Bron take the same Cavs' team back to the finals?...Look for Big Ben and the Bulls to make a good run for an Eastern Conference crown, D-Wade is coming off shoulder Surgery and Shaq is being held together with duck tape so the Heat maybe have a chance. The young and surging Magic and Raptors can make some more noise this year and advance past the first round of the playoffs.
Sleeper picks...the Nets are solid, but old, at every position and they get back big guy Nenad Krisrtic, who was lost for all of last season. Hibachi (Gilbert Arenas) is in a contract year for the Wizards and he might drop more "buckets" then wins...Gil stop worrying about Kobe. Chris Paul is the hottest young point guard in the league but he needs help and the Hornets did nothing this off-season. The Bucks are BIG but still lack GREAT guard play, look for them to ease in and out all season.
Basement Dwellers...Sixers, Hawks, Knicks, Bobcats, and Pacers have OUTSIDE shots to play with the big boys in the off-season but have a better chance in winning the Lottery...Literally
