    if Jason Kidd leaves...then they won't be top seed...but possibly still be one of the best team on the East still, no doubt. But I hope he doesn't.

    Pistons will likely be the top seed or best east team..even if kidd stays

    bulls arent going anywhere quickly and neither is the east. you still wont see more than two teams winning 50+ games in the east next year

    psh. no faith. they've got two big men. in the EAST. if it was the west, it'd be a different story. all they gotta do is get the ball inside & learn to play better defense. all they needed was more experience. that's what this year was for

    The east will win the title in say 2 or 3 years...depends how players like darko ajust...also lebron is in the east..so who knows he might be a success and carry cavs to the playoffs....in say 3 years...the east has got 4 out of the first 5 picks in this years draft

    the future is bright for the east

    the west isn't getting any younger right now

    yea but getting better with likely additions of jermaine, melo, (maybe) kidd, etc. etc. you cant say that the east is on the rise and the west is on the decline. I think the west will win the title at least the next 4 years. the spurs probably wont stop at one. u know the kings are going to win one or more. the lakers may win another at some point. The mavs may have a chance too. Phoenix i think will win one before theyre done and at some point Ming and Francis will arrive
