    The Celtics Playoff Picture

    *Photo via CSSNE The 2015/2016 Boston Celtics are a fiery bunch that has made their mark in a newly competitive Eastern Conference. Following their surge last year into the postseason, the C’s look to solidify their stance in the East with home court advantage. The seeding from three to eight in the East is completely up in the air; teams are swapping spots daily as they compete for a shot to dethrone King James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

    Joe's Top 8 in the East

    The 2015-2016 NBA season is rapidly approaching, and in oncoming weeks many people will be sharing opinions and predictions on how the season will unfold. The Eastern Conference has taken a back seat to the Western Conference since the turn of the Millennium and has failed to reach the prowess that its rival conference garners. Every year, there is one and sometimes two playoff participants in the East that stumble into the postseason with sub-.500 records while often times o

    Landon's Top 8 in the West

    The 2014-15 Western Conference was dominated by the eventual NBA champion, Golden State Warriors. With the Dubs in control of the number one spot from the tip, other squads battled for the other seven spots. One game separated the second seed from the sixth seed and SEVEN teams ended the season with 50+ wins. So yeah, the West is damn good, but that was last year…what happens now? 1.

    Top 16 Teams Playoff Format

    *Photo via NBA.com Throughout the NBA there has been a lot of talk about changing the current playoff format. NBA commissioner Adam Silver has gone as far to say that division winners should NOT be guaranteed a playoff spot, but that’s it. So far, there hasn’t been any talk about taking it a step further and letting the top 16 teams in the entire league make the playoffs, but it’s an interesting idea that many NBA fans would like to see . Even a few NBA coaches have said they

    *Photo via AP Overview: The third seed, the Chicago Bulls(50-32) will take on the sixth seed, Milwaukee Bucks(41-41). In what could be an interesting first-round matchup. The Bulls have had an injury plagued season, but thanks to a solid bench they still had a successful year. Now that everyone is healthy, they have a shot to make a deep playoff run. The only issue is the starters haven’t had much time together, something to keep an eye on. And as always the other big questio

    *Photo via AP photo Overview: The explosive second seeded Houston Rockets (56-26) will take on the seventh seeded Dallas Mavericks(50-32). This is a classic interstate rivalry, and the first time since 2005 that they will be matched up in the playoffs. This will be an offensive based series, expect high scores! The Mavericks averaged 105.2 points per game , while the Rockets averaged 103.9 a game, it’s safe to say it will be a shootout. Season Recap: Despite overall averaging

That was the last game LeBron James played in a Cavs uniform before returning home this season, and in Cleveland’s return to the playoffs, the number two seeded Cavs will play those Celtics who ranked seventh in the East. A lot of things have changed since their last playoff meeting. James won two rings in Miami, and the coach and core

    3 Reasons Why the Top 3 Seeds in the East are Legit Contenders

    *Photo via USA Today In the mediocrity of the NBA’s Eastern Conference, it is hard to imagine any teams outside of the top three seeds advancing to the Finals. In fact, only two teams in NBA history seeded outside of the top three in either conference have won a championship; the 1995 Houston Rockets were the sixth seed, and the 1969 Boston Celtics were the fourth seed. Cinderella stories are clearly only meant for the NCAA Tournament. In the pro game, and especially in the m

    How Far Can the Bulls Go?

    *Photo via USA Today For the past few seasons the hopes of Chicago fans have been toyed with. Every season they are caught in limbo, between expecting to contend for a title, or a “next year” is our year mind set. Hopes were set high after a run to the Conference Finals in 2011, a season that saw Derrick Rose win the MVP and Tom Thibodeau win Coach of the Year. How could they not be optimistic coming off that season, but we all know the situation the Bulls have become, where

    Do the Hornets Have Any Sting Left?

    *Photo via USA Today Following last season’s 43-39 record and claiming the 7th seed, and losing in four to the Heat. Many had the feeling the Hornets were on the rise and were to be something to fear in the future. Following a solid off-season, picking up Lance Stephenson, Jason Maxwell, and drafting Noah Vonleh, the Hornets were projected to be a mid-seed in the East. However, this season has been a step back. With eight games left the Hornets are still in the playoff race,
