16. Milwaukee Bucks
Over the next couple of weeks, the Milwaukee Bucks will have to make a move up the East standings. They’re starting to get healthy and this team will have to prove sooner rather than later that they’re a legit threat to repeat as champions.
Right now, it’s easy to give this team a pass but the Bucks are going to have to get back on track soon.
15. Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics are playing much better as of late but this team still leaves much to be desired. The hope is that once Jaylen Brown returns, they’ll be able to go on a bit of a run to throw their name back into the Eastern Conference race.
I’m not confident in them being able to do that, however.
