4. Philadelphia 76ers
The Philadelphia 76ers quietly had one of their best seasons in recent history. This is a team that will head into the playoffs as the 1-seed in the Eastern Conference and a team that has the talent and depth to make a deep run.
The big question for this team heading into the postseason is whether Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons have what it takes to carry this team to the promised land.
3. Brooklyn Nets
It appears that the gamble paid off for the Brooklyn Nets. This is a team that is going to be healthy heading into the playoffs and we’re about to find out whether it was all worth it in the end for this club.
Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and James Harden haven’t played much together this season, but they’re going to be a full-go when the playoffs begin. Does any team in the Eastern Conference have enough fire power to keep up with their big three?
