Pacers
Bulls
Bucks
Pistons
Cavs.

I think all 5 are capable of making the playoffs barring injury, has that ever happened where a division made a clean sweep into the playoffs?

I doubt the Bucks will make it. I could see Cleveland making it. Right now I just have the Bulls, Pacers, and Pistons coming out of that division.

Bucks wont make it and Cavs are loaded with talent, but they still have to prove themselves to be winners.

The east is finally stacked. This might be the conference shift of power that we have been waiting on for the last 15 years.

2006 Central Division accomplished this. Its possible but I don't see the Bucks doing well either.

Unless Larry Sanders takes a massive leap forward offensively, I just doing see the Bucks even reaching 35 wins. Losing Ellis and trading away Brandon Jennings is really going to hurt their scoring. OJ Mayo is finally going to get his chance to see if he can be a true 20 point scorer in the NBA. I just don't think he's going to have enough help. Too many wild cards on that roster.

I think all have the potential to Make it, but it's also very possible it could be only the Bulls and Pacers. Should be an interesting season, hope there are some close playoff races.

Cavs maybe, Pistons probably if the chemistry is there, I don't see the Bucks making it unless they have a decent to good frontcourt presence, OJ Mayo can lead the team, and BKnight develops

Honestly, I only see the Bulls and Pacers coming out. Maybe the Cavs, maybe. Detroit really didn't improve that much with the Josh Smith signing. He's a good PF, a really good one, but they already have some really solid up and coming PF's.The Bucks just lost their best two scorers so, no I don't think they're making it. And why I don't see the Cavs making it is because without Bynum they won around 20 games, and I just dont think Bynum is going to stay healthy enough for him to make a difference but if he is then I think they can make some noise in the lower seeds of the East.

I think don't see Milwaukee making the playoffs. I got Cleveland and Detroit making it with of course Chicago and Indiana.

Bulls, Pacers & maybe Cavs.

In the 2014-2015 season I see the Pistons having a better shot.

No way for the Bucks..

The Pacers and the Bulls are obviously going to make the Playoffs and I also think Cleveland is going to make it. Not sure about the Bucks and Pistons, though.

Of Celtics, Raptors, Wizards, Hawks, Cavaliers, Pistons, and Bucks who are the best 3?

I don't think the Bucks, Cavs and Pistons are the best 3 of that group. People are sleeping on Toronto. They played very well after getting Rudy *** last season. That is a team that should make the playoffs.

I have read some people like the Bobcats to make the playoffs. I don't, but I think some people do.

I still think if the Celtics and Wizards can stay healthy they have a very good chance of making the playoffs.

Honestly though there are 5 teams in the East. The last 3 seeds are just fodder.

You think Boston can make the playoffs with that roster?
