What do you think of the NBA Eastern Conference for the 2007-2008 Season as of right now?

Will the pacers make the playoffs?

There is a rumor that K.G. is finally getting traded to Celtics. But could a team with Allen, Pierce, and K.G. do some damage?

The Eastern Conference will have largely the same crop of tough teams. Detroit, Chicago, and Cleveland. Miami should rejoin the ranks of top teams in the east and the Celtics will if they do in fact trade for Garnett. I also expect Washington to compete this season if their roster can stay healthy. That would leave two more playoff spots open. One for New Jersey and one for Toronto. I don't think we will see the Pacers playing in the postseason.

Pacers... NO! but if KG goes to the celtics then o yeah. watch out East. but No one can beat the Pistons. so forget it
its still whack unless KG goes to da Celtics, and all da teams straighten up, its weak and da pistons win every year so if da EAST wunna strenghten up dey gotta keep da Pistons outta of da Playoffs kuz deir nothing but bandwagon
I think it is still much weaker than the West. The top two draft picks, and clearly the two best players in the draft both went out west. Iverson will be in Denver for a full year, I think the Clippers will rebound and be stronger than last year and the Spurs are still relatively young for all the success they have had. Also, I don't expect a first round exit by the Mavs again this year.

The K.G. deal isn't done yet and even if it was, I don't think he is the player he was five years ago. Still strong and effective, but chemistry is a huge thing on a team, Ray Allen has a big ego and I could see him and Garnett clashing. Personally I like the Pistons in the East next year; the Cavs won't sneak up on them like they did last year. But honestly, I still think the five best teams in the West are better than anybody in the East (Spurs, Mavericks, Suns, Nuggets, and maybe the Jazz).
In the east that team looks like liquid gold how can you fail with three all-stars and one superstar in kevin garnett. But if the celtics give up allot of their young talent and don't win think of the factors to take into place.
The pacers probably not

And im pretty sure that KG is gon 2 the Nuggets its a 3 way trade w/ the celtics,twolves,and i think the nuggets but i could b wrong

Yeah they could do some damage.But if there on the celtics they will still suck cause the celtics they suck

But my fav team is the celtics it sad
no matter what happens, the cavs are still the team to beat.

GO CAVS!
is the grass green? you better bet they can do some MAJORdamage in 07 08 cant wait for the season to begin!
The east is weak. I see Miami coming out next year with if Wade stays healthy. But after that it is weak. If Boston gets Garnett like it is reported it is a done deal, they will jump to #2 in the East. A starting line up with Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce would top any line up in the East, Talent wise.
How are the Celtics going to get KG and keep Pierce and Allen? Who are they going to trade? The only other good player they have is Al Jefferson, and that's not enough to bring KG to Boston.

But if they somehow pull it off, Allen, Pierce, and KG would be a very formidable team. I see them getting to the Eastern Conference finals before losing to the Bulls.
Pacers?. No

K. G. is one of the best players of NBA, he'll help for Celtics.
The NBA eastern Conference is a joke!!!!! Did anybody see the spanking that cavs got? I hope that celtics do get garnett so the spurs put him and the crybabies allen, pierce in check. AGAIN!!!
the eastern conference SUCKS....

if you had to pick the 16 BEST teams in the playoffs at least 10 would be western

the top 4-5 teams in the west can probably beat EVERYBODY in the east

the KG trade makes sense if you plan to win in 1 or 2 years, but after that, its useless... pierce is about 30 now, allen and garnett are INTO their 30s, you essentially have no cap flexibility and all your money tied up in three aging guys who won't be as good as in their prime but being paid as if they still are (see: shaq)... if no injuries occur however, that threesome can make some noise next year and the year after that

the pacers will NOT make the playoffs for the next few years because larry bird must have took classes from the Isiah Thomas School of Boneheaded GM Moves...

he gives up a FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK IN A LOADED DRAFT for..... AL HARRINGTON?!

then TRADES HARRINGTON?! (essentially giving up the pick for nothing, good call)

him and stephen jackson for MIKE DUNLEAVY AND TROY MURPHY?! okay, character counts and all, but compared to jackson and harrington, THOSE GUYS SUCK

man ron artest absolutely DESTROYED THAT FRANCHISE
Yes. Allen is great at downtown shots, KG is a great rebounder and great at shooting, Pierce is pretty good at steals and all the other stuff!

1 problem, it is almost impossible to get pass Detroit, and Cleveland!!!
miami, cleveland, detriot ,boston ,nj,bulls, magic and nicks
There champion will be just another team for the west to sweep in the finals.
pacers wont make the playoffs all the have is jermaine o'neal
it doesnt really matter because the spurs are winning it all again
