http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/preview2007/news/story?page=Experts-EastChamps Unbelievable. Over the Celtics! Going into last season, the Bulls were the pick by many to reach the Finals and they didn't even make the playoffs! I had a preview magazine that picked Miami, NJ, and Chicago to win their divisions and none of them made the playoffs. Crazy, eh?
how could people have though chicago would make it out of the east? Ridiculous, I must say I thought Detroit would, which is a far better guess than the bulls
Look at THIS: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/preview2007/news/story?page=predicttabletitles Amazing. Not one guy picked the Cs to win it all. No one picked the Hornets to win their division. The lotto teams in NJ, Miami, and Chicago all got picks to win their divisions. Amazing.
