New Jersey Nets,New York Knicks,Philadelphia 76ers,Boston Celtics,Toronto Raptors
CENTRAL
Indiana Pacers,Detroit Pistons,Milwaukee Bucks,Cleveland Cavaliers,Chicago Bulls
SOUTHEAST
Miami Heat,Orlando Magic,Charlotte Bobcats,Washington Wizards,Atlanta Hawks
- The West -
NORTHWEST
Minnesota Timberwolves,Denver Nuggets,Utah Jazz,Portland Trail Blazers,Seattle Supersonics

| #2 Posted on 21.5.04 1104.04 | Instant Rating: 6.99 | I'll take this by division.
ATLANTIC
Winner: Toronto. Gets out of division with Pacers and Pistons. Possible to rebuild quickly and leap over Knicks, Celtics, and Sixers.
Loser: None.
CENTRAL
Winner: None.
Loser: Chicago. Stuck with Pacers and Pistons, who aren't going anywhere, and improving Cavs and Bucks.
SOUTHEAST
Winners: Miami and Orlando. Miami should rule this division of weaklings for the near future, and Orlando only needs to get T-Mac a little help to be a solid second. (Also, would it surprise anyone if the Bobcats finished 3rd in this division with around 22 wins?)
Loser: None.
NORTHWEST
Winners: Everyone, for getting out of either the Pacific (Lakers and Kings) or Midwest (Spurs, Mavs, and Rockets) and getting a guaranteed 3 seed instead of struggling to get to 4 and having home court in the first round.
Loser: None.
SOUTHWEST
Winner: None. What a tough divison!
Losers: Memphis and New Orleans. Both will have a tough time cracking the division's top three, meaning a 6-seed at best come playoff time.
PACIFIC
Winners: Lakers and Kings. Like the Red Sox and Yankees, they should be the clear faves to finish 1-2 in this division for years.
Loser: None.

| #3 Posted on 22.5.04 0502.25 | Instant Rating: 4.52 | I was going to reply to this myself, but I find myself in complete agreement with JayJayDean and didn't want to just parrot him. Of course, my being in agreement with JayJay is a somewhat rare occurrence, and obviously I'd like for that not to happen very often. LOL...
