Honestly, its all on Bynum. If he makes a successful return, I think they definitely could. That's a big "if" though.
Pun intended.
Why is it all on Bynum. It's not like Kyrie has been the pillar of health. We are a couple injuries away from them being the Jarrett Jack/Earl Clark Show featuring Tristain and Dion.
Also, Varejao is still there and better than Average center.
Cleveland, Toronto, Knicks and outside shots Wiz & Bucks will make up the 7th and 8th seeds.
Miami, Indy, Chicago, Nets, ATL, Detroit are shoe ins for playoffs.
I would say that Miami, Indy, Chicago, BK, and NYK are locks for the playoffs. Then Washington, ATL, Tdot, and Leaveland (in order of likeliness). Bucks, Celtics, and Bobcats probably have a very minimal shot as well.
Watch out for the Wizards, guys. One of the best-fitting backcourts in the league, if not THE best. Wall played amazing down the stretch last season and Beal really broke out last year once Wall came back. Beal - Oladipo - McLemore - Waiters is going to be a SG rivalry to watch in the coming years.
