The Celtics are in the same tier as the Heat, Sixers, and Bucks in my opinion.
The Nets are a wildcard depending on Kyrie’s status and how Ben looks.
Eastern Conference playoffs are going to be great. – 3:39 PM

A three way tie for 8, 9 and 10 in the East- Brooklyn, Charlotte and Atlanta.
The Nets are in danger of having to win 2 elimination games just to have the opportunity to face either Miami, Philly, Milwaukee or Chicago in round 1.
Nets play at Charlotte on Tues. – 3:34 PM

50 years ago today, the Milwaukee Bucks promoted Wayne Embry to general manager, making him the first black GM in pro sports and opening doors for others.
But in Milwaukee, Embry was SO the logical hire that one newspaper didn’t even mention his race.

Monty Williams emphasized the importance of Deandre Ayton having a great game today that is within the Suns’ system. For example, they didn’t prominently feature Cam Johnson the other night. Williams said he’s fine with DA mixing in the jumpers. Called it a balance for him. – 2:09 PM
