Top 8 Teams East Standings Predictions. 

Post#1 » by kellmellus50 » Sun Jul 7, 2019 11:07 am

The East is officially WIDE OPEN next year!

Milwaukee lost Brogdon

Toronto lost Kawhi & Danny Green

Boston lost Kyrie, Horford & Baynes (added Kemba)

Philly lost Butler & Redick (added Horford)

I think each of the top 4 teams have taken a step back going into next year. and Brooklyn was the Most improved.Indiana, Miami,Orlando,Charlotte's and Washington haven't done much to be in Top 8 .

My Preseason Prediction how the teams will be at the end of season.

(1)Bucks
(2)76ers
(3)Nets=Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving + Spencer Dinwiddie(look out)
(4)Raptors
(5)Pistons = Surprise Team who will beat Toronto in playoffs
(6) Pacers
(7)Knicks
(8)Celtics=Going for a hard fall in standings
Defence Wins Championships,we need to return to the Bad Boy era.

There's probably a few things up for debate in your standings but how do the Knicks get the 7th seed!?!?

Pacers got quit a bit better. Unless another move is made by us, I have a hard time seeing us be better than the 6th seed. Boston is also very well coached so I'm seeing us at #7. Also, the Nets won't have KD at all next year they are expecting him to be out at least 12 months. With no KD the next are probably in the 4/5 mix.

1. Sixers (If Joel plays at least 70 games, if not they drop down to #2)
2. Bucks (Should be close to the Sixers all year will be a tight race that could go either way)
3. Raptors (Siakam takes another step forward, they are still a really solid team with Vets and experience)
4. Pacers (I think they made some underrated moves to get better)
5. Nets (Kyrie helps but I'm not sure he's that much better than DLo was last year)
6. Celtics (Losing Horford was huge, but Kemba with a good coach could do wonders for him)
7. Detroit (Looking poised for another first round sweep)
8. MIAMI (Butler helps but he doesn't have much other help and they are low on other assets)

Get WestBrook and we might have a shot at taking the east. Im not scared of any of those teams with two guys who can create their own offense consistently and then having a possible 6th man of the Year scoring 20 off the bench.
