It's difficult to imagine that this Boston team (sans Hayward and Kyrie) was the 2nd best team in the conference last year. We all saw what happened when Cleveland finally played real competition.
This year's Bucks, Raptors and to a degree the 6ers are a breath of fresh air. We just need a few others to come around before this conference rids itself of joke status.
Such a shit show lol

After nine years, the East is suddenly stacked.

Re: The {past} Eastern Conference lol
BOSTON actually played much better when Kyrie didnt play.. He is a great finisher but he doesnt make teams better in terms of wins and losses...
He is probably the best closer in the game though.. Not sure cuz Lillard and Bron are in the NBA..

Re: The {past} Eastern Conference lol
Some teams had mental barrier, where they thought just because Lebron is there they had no chance.Once Lebron left, Sixers made good acquisition with Butler - Tobias . Raptors got Kawhi. And obviously Bucks stepped up.
The Celtics should have tried to do something too.Like trade one of their picks for needed player but they didnt..
