Who's coming out of the East? (Poll)

Really tough to call it tbh. Most exciting the East has been since Celtics/Pistons were the top 2 teams there.

I think roster quality level of these 4 are very similar and coaching will be the difference. And i think either Bucks or Celtics will make it. And i hope Pacers won't make top 4 so we can watch perfect semifinals.

Vegas odds as of now to win the east:

Raptors 2/1
Celtics 5/2
Bucks 13/5
76ers 4/1


Not that these numbers really mean anything, given that the Lakers (20/1) have better odds than the Nuggets (25/1) to win the West.

I'll go with the Raptors. Too much discord amongst the Celtics team, Giannis will drop off significantly in the playoffs imo... I honestly think Philly might have the second best chance. They've got an incredibly formidable team for the playoffs.

I'll give the edge to Milwaukee because Giannis is by far the best player in the Conference this year & they gave a tougher fight to Boston last year with a team that didn't really play any defense. Give me the best defense with a top 5 offense and the best player.

Boston would be the 2nd pick, but obviously we don't know if Irving's going to be healthy for the Playoffs and if their chemistry is all there. I still think they have the best roster and the best coach with the best closer, but they've looked worse this year overall compared to the rest of the Conference.

Raptors and Sixers could both be better, but I'm not buying it before I've seen enough of them with the new guys.

Very curious as to why people think the 6ers are going to win the East.
