    post ur eastern conference predictions. here are mine:

    1. Pistons (Larry Brown will lead pistons bac kto top)
    2. Nets (JKidd at point running the show with east's best centres: Deke & Zo)
    3. Pacers (Young groups looks promising with return of O'Neal)
    4. Hornets (Baron Davis, Mashburn, Magloire...still great players)
    5. Magic (Addition of Lue, Howard makes them stronger)
    6. Sixers (Loss of Larry Brown and lack of front court made them drop)
    7. Celtics (Walker ended season poorly and Vin Baker situation looks bad but Pierce still great)
    8. Bulls (Addition of Scottie and young nucleus of players will gell with Jalen Rose)
    ___________

    9. Raptors (Hopefully a lack of injuries, minor additions and new coach will help them raise but still not good enough)
    10. Cavs (LeBron, Lebron, Lebron...its the east! anything can happen)
    11. Hawks (Management did nothing...but a team full of talent)
    12. Wizards (Full of cap room could bring in major player...still, they werent able to make the playoffs even with Jordan last year)
    13. Knicks (Overpaid players, Undersized big men, enough said.)
    14. Heat (Lack of additions, rebuilding mode...)
    15. Bucks (Firing of coach, changing of GM, trading of players, lack of signing major free agents)

    Right now the Bulls are young and inconsistant. Not to mention, J-Will-less. I think that a team like Toronto with Carter, Bosh, A.Davis, A.Williams, and MoPete has a better chance of making the playoffs.
