The Eastern Conference is a CONFUSING MESS
The NBA’s Eastern Conference is a mess this season with the Detroit Pistons at the helm, the New York Knicks being good but somewhat unconvincing at times, the Boston Celtics being shockingly good, the Cleveland Cavaliers being shockingly bad, and teams like the Orlando Magic, Atlanta Hawks, Toronto Raptors, Miami Heat, and Philadelphia 76ers all in the mix in the middle. This on top of the Milwaukee Bucks readying to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Indiana Pacers being a disaster without Tyrese Haliburton has the East in one of the most interesting spots it’s ever been in and completely up for grabs.

these thunder fans make me sick
Heat need to figure out the Powell and Herro dynamic but they’ve barely played together. They need more size too.
Franz having a better season but Paolo is their best player when he’s healthy
The Knicks are definite favorites to choke in the playoffs again
I share your confusion in trying to predict the east this year. I think the Knicks will be a 3 seed or better this year, but 8 other teams could be too. Crazy season.
tbh bro ur underselling the knicks
NBA needs some rules about facial hair on these players…they are sweaty and disgusting looking
Sweatshirt is hard!!
Good video
Lakers in 5
I don’t think Trae will ruin everything when he comes back. The hawks projected started 5 had only played 2 games together and also everyone was shooting horribly in those first few games that Trae played. Johnson was literally shooting 0% from 3 and now he’s up to like 38% or something.
Pistons, Knicks and Celtics are only contenders in East. Everyone else is a fraud. Simple
If the celtics learn how not to blow a lead thats a threat.. Lets see how they face the best in the west okc den and hou.. They passed the east already det tor ny and cle
As heat fan I like it but honestly I think is going to be Knicks vs OKC in finals unless theirs a major shift okc will win another championship
When does the Jalen Johnson MVP video come out?
Boston being the 3rd seed in the east says alot about the two ring Knicks who are ALL IN and the Celtics just unloaded our roster an we neck and neck 😂🍀🍀🍀☘️
LETS GO PISTONS!!!
TRADE Joel Embiid! Even if it's for a bag of peanuts.
Cade a triple double , points ,assists and turnovers !
It’s not confusing. The Celtics have been the best team in the east and will keep that going.
honestly the eastern conference is basically who is going to be sacrificed to the winner of the western conference.
Bron taking over games still like that is wild☠️
Knicks are the best team
As a Hawks fan, I genuinely do not understand the hate on Risacher. Dude has been phenomenal for the Hawks up until his injury this season. Hard to fault him for that.
I think Knicks can be the number 1 seed once they finally get firing on all cylinders with the new system and figure out their player rotation. They have played with some pretty wonky comps earlier in the season especially with OG out but after that Magic win shows they are learning from their mistakes. Offensively the Knicks are deadly but I think they need to make a trade for one high level elite defender and they could make it to the finals. I'm just not 100 if they could take OKC though
The conference is competitive. That’s good for basketball .. no one team is the clear favorite
9:04 spot on. Nurse’s late game strategy is god-awful. He says here’s the ball Maxey, figure it out.
i think knicks comes out of the east, especially if they get giannis
It's only confusing if you give a crap. The east is just bad. That's explains everything. My Celtics ain't surprising me 😎
Knicks trash bro u can’t have two defensive liability’s in a team
Pistons are the best team it’s just hard to process
You’re a fool if you think Lauri fits the pistons he doesn’t, and Ivey stats are based on minutes restriction of 15 minute he’s scored 10 plus in almost every game since being back
Boston isn’t winning the East nor taking a 1st seed. Let’s be for real
The east just sucks compared to the west lol
It’s funny because the NFL and the NBA are pretty much the same right now with standings you win one game or you lose one game and you can fall like crazy
What the HELL happend to the Cavs?!
The Raptors Need RJ Barrett Back And The Heat Haven’t Had Tyler Hero, Both Teams Are Legit…
Pistons, Celtics, And Knicks Are The Only Other Contenders in The East, Everyone Else Are Frauds….
The East was about as expected. The Pistons have been on a rise since they overcame their 28 losing streak. The Knicks remained the most stable after last season, with a better coach now.
Pistons’ experience is such a weak argument.
Yeah they lost last year to the Knicks, but they could’ve won that series if it wasn’t for a missed call. But now, they know how to close games. They lead the league in most wins by single digits. That means almost every win they got was clutch. If they’re winning those gritty games why would experience be a weakness for that team.
Celtics have 4 potentially 25 ppgplayers wth ut Tatum
Scary 😂😂😂
The East ooks cool to me
WTF are you talking about. The Knicks are head and shoulders the best team in the east.
Yall overrating Detroit. They gotta win a series first before you can call them contenders lol. Knicks got em beat until proven otherwise. I don’t care about records when it’s December
I honestly think JB is gonna make 1st team all NBA and lead the Celtics to the finals, especially if Tatum comes back
Cavs not as dynamic offensively or defensively this season.
This should n-Ott be the case. Something must have changed.
The pistons community is looking at Trey Murphy and MPJ. Not looking to unload all assets, but improve at the wing/4 position with shooting and more scoring
Detroit Basketball!!!’n
Really it’s just Knicks that’s it
I don’t understand the skepticism on the Knicks. Top 10 defence in the league and top 5 offence, also every playoff series the issue has been on the offensive side, somehow in the playoffs we don’t really struggle to shut teams down
