Knicks are the favorite to come out of the east. Followed by Celtics, Raptors, Sixers, Pistons, Cavs, and then Heat.
Is the east getting better or is it that people don't think that Giannis is as good as before? Did the Heat trade their future to be a play-in team?
Usually the best teams have some homegrown high draft pick all stars. Spurs drafted Wemby, harper ,castle, OKC drafted Jdub and chet, Boston drafted Tatum and Brown etc This knicks roster is all from free agency signing and trades. No superstar blockbuster trades like the Luka trade. No one had the knicks coming out of the East, yet here they are steam rolling the competition on the way to a championship. Is this the greatest roster construction in history without a superstar? And no KAT wasnt considered a superstar when he was traded and neither was Brunson after the Mavs didnt want to resign him.
Wemby said F it ill match your points with rebounds. Its comical how dominant he is in the paint on both ends.
