Boston could very easily represent the East next season.

Look at the miles on Kobe and Nash. What's the difference?

Kobe & Nash can afford to have subpar stretches of play, can the Celtics?

They took Miami to 7 without Bradley, Green, and back-up bigs.
They can.

Their competition has gotten really better around them and it puts a lot of pressure on these two to step up. As far as Brooklyn goes, sure Lopez cant rebound but hes got two guys next to him who can make up for it....Humphries and Reggie Evans, Lopez is a solid post scorer and Deron Williams will make him better. New York a full season under Mike Woodson, getting trained by Hakeem over the offseason I think will do wonders for Amares game. He lost his brother last year and he was just never into it. Knicks have Felton back and he/Amare have a solid 2 man game when they played in 2011.
Im just not drinking the Celtics kool aid this year, I think they're dunzo.
If Sullinger/Green can be big time contributors than maybe I think they can be more competitive.

Brooklyn: Lopez/Humphries/Evans
Miami: Bosh/Lebron/whoever goon. they've already beat BOS twice
New York: Chandler/Camby/Amare/Melo
Indiana: Hibbert/West/Mahimi
you got all these big frontlines in the East. BOS is toast
