Right now I have the C's. They looked like they would have made it last year had they had KG. That being said, the Cavs are going to have a lot to say about it. They made some great off season moves.

Seriously. I included them in the poll only because I figure they have the talent to finish 4 behind the big 3. But didn't expect so many Raptor homers to be lurking on the Laker board.
Thank you, Phil.

I think it will be the Celtics, but I really like LeBron and the Cavs. I just think their offseason acquisitions will make them a better team.

I'm going to go with the Magic.

Why? Cavs and Celtics are older, veteran teams. Celtics are going to pace themselves and save energy for the playoffs. They've been there, done that, so they won't pursue HCA as hard since all they want is to be healthy.

Cavs had a great regular season last year and came up short in the playoffs. Similar to the Celtics, they are going to be saving themselves for the playoffs, taking the Spurs method of taking it easy during the season and turning it on down the stretch.

Magic on the other hand are in the same position the Lakers were in this past year, coming off a Finals defeat. They are going to be motivated and playing with a chip on their shoulder all season long because of the critics who favor the Celtics/Cavs ahead of them, despite the Magic winning the conference last year. Add in Vince Carter who is going to be playing some of the best ball in his career IMO and the Magic should have the best record in the East, possibly in the league.

Cavs or Celtics - a lot of factors (injuries, chemistry, etc) on which one comes out. .
