There is a lot of mid in the East right now. Everyone from 4-12ish seems on the same level. There are some promising young teams like the Pacers and Magic but its hard to know if they’re for real. There’s underperforming veteran teams like the Heat and Bulls, and just decent playoff teams like the Hawks and Knicks
I like the Pacers
i dont think bucks should be the top 3 though
Miami Heat and all those 3 teams would be scared to face them
Miami
We literally made the finals with the similar team
Orlando.
Bucks are not in the same boat as Philly or Boston right now and any Bucks fan is lying if they say otherwise
They got issues to fix
… did Cleveland just die or?
Miami is also a candidate but I guarantee you it will not reflect in their regular season seeding
Wizards
Magic
Its the Heat
The magic, no joke.
Regular season: Pacers
Playoffs: Heat obviously
That being said, Bucks are a giant TBD, they don’t really deserve the status you’re giving them at the moment, their past accomplishments are irrelevant given they are brand new.
Never rule out Miami. Then Cleveland or Indiana.
Heat/Knicks/Cavs are next 3 best but their regular season record won’t show it, after that’s its a mess , I think there could be surprises for the remaining 2 teams in playoffs
Orlando Magic is the true answer.Kryptonite to the Bucks and Celtics.
