The Eastern Conference is getting deeper. The Boston Celtics are the clear-cut favorite to return to the NBA Finals next season. However, multiple teams in the East can push the Celtics to the limit, especially after another active free-agency period. The Philadelphia 76ers created a new big three with their addition of Paul George. The New York Knicks are among the best defensive teams in the NBA following their acquisition of Mikal Bridges.
The Indiana Pacers and Orlando Magic are exciting young teams that play a distinct brand of basketball and will continue to improve with internal development. And, of course, the Milwaukee Bucks have one of the best duos in the NBA.
In a recent episode of “KG Certified,” Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce discuss whether the Eastern Conference is returning to its former glory of being a deep and challenging conference after multiple years of being a clear tier below the West.
