Who in the East do you give the best shot at dethroning the C’s next year?

[Neal Romer]

I think Boston’s bringin the whole band back, no? I guess depending on whether Horford decides to retire on top or not.

Theyre gonna be overwhelming favs to come out of the East again assuming they stay mostly healthy. Who do you see with even a chance of dethroning them at this point?

[Neal Romer]

The obvious answer is Atlanta after they take Bronny #1, but beyond that… I dont see an obvious candidate.

[SouBeachTalents]

Milwaukee would have to be the logical choice here. They're honestly the only team I'd give a legit shot at knocking them off in the East.

[NBAGOAT]

Philly with their 3rd star. Ideally butler maybe George

[Im Still Ballin]

Washington after they grow a pair and draft Zach Edey and he turns into Shaquille O'Neal.

The second apron

Owner says he’s keeping the team together and whites already interested in an extension. Bench will be worse with horford aging and hauser leaving but starting lineup is set til one guy falls off. Could be together 3-4 years

Yeah but they dont need to add anyone. And theyre gonna pay whatever taxes at least for next year to try and repeat. So I dont think in the immediate term it will be an obstacle, altho obviously long term it will begin working against them.

Oh is he a free agent?

Yeah that will be an unfortunate loss, tho certainly not a crippling one.

It's Philly. They're gonna have a stacked roster this year that can match the Celtics in talent. Embiid is a bad matchup for the Celtics.

Bucks or Sixers

[90sgoat]

Some who can outwork them physically and hit a bunch of 3s.

He'll be injured if they get that far.
