Who wins the east this year?

It's hard to say who because there are a lot of potential contenders. But the safe pick right now is detroit. They might not be like the old detroit but they still have a lot of weapons

this year, the east.  but as always, it'll be close.

The East will be victorious.

Not this year, but maybe next year.  Dallas will be weaker next year, that poor East, can't get anything right this year.  Detroit is their only saving grace.

I have Villanova in winning in my bracket.  The last two games have been really close.  I see them either winning or losing by 1 or 2 points...hopefully winning.

Before the NBA season began, I predicted that the Pistons would win their third Easten Conference Championshp in a row. Today, I have a feeling that the Miami Heat will win the NBA Eastern Conference Championship in six games on their home court in Miami.

My votes for the East would go to Dwyane Wade and Jason Kidd (who is playing out of his mind right now) at guard, LeBron James and Vince Carter at forward, and Shaquille O'Neal at center.  While in the East, I would vote for Chris Paul (though I know Tracy McGrady will eventually get this spot), Kobe Bryant at guard, Dirk Nowitzki and Tim Duncan at forward, and Yao Ming at center.  I predict that Dwyane Wade will bring home the All-Star game MVP trophy.\n\nAs for the All-Star game festivities:  I feel that both Wade and Nowitzki will defend their Skill Challenge and Three Point crown respectively.\n\nHope this helps.

Chicago Bulls in the east, they were already a tough defensive team last year, now they got Big Ben. Miami's too old, I see Chicago as the east champs and they'll be too tough for Lebron to handle.\n\nSan Antonio Spurs in the west, the way they been playin early on you can see they want another title. Clippers look like they'll give Duncan a run for his money though.

The Detroit Pistons should win it all. They are complete, and have recently beaten the Spurs and the Heat. They should be able to get to the finals again, and I can't see them losing 2 Finals in a row with their team.

The East won 122 to 120. Lebron James was named MVP with a 29 point performance.

The top 8 teams in the Eastern Conference   and\nThe top 8 teams in the Western Conference

In the Eastern Conference Detroit is sure to reach the finals but in the West it's not as clear. There are three contenders: San Antonio, Dallas, and Phoenix. Each one of them has a chance of going to the finals so you really can't tell who's going to represent the west in the finals and who's going to win.

The San Antonio Spurs. They're the defending champs and have even done better than last year by just setting a franchise record 63 wins and they are showing no signs of slowing down. Duncan and Ginobili are all healthy now. Their playoff experience and deep bench will lead them to another championship this year.

THE DALLAS MAVERICKS....\n\nTHEY STILL HAVE NOT SHOWERED SINCE LAST WEEK....
