Easton Conference Playoff Preview

Well not to much longer and we will be talking about the NBA playoffs, so today I thought we would look at the Eastern Conference and what we can expect. Right now the Chicago Bulls have locked down the number one seed with Boston and Miami at two. Boston does hold the tie-breakers if it ends in a tie. Orlando is fourth followed by Atlanta. Let us look at how this plays out in the end.

Without a doubt the Bulls are playing the best basketball of the Top 5, but the playoffs are much different than the regular season. In reality any of the Top five teams could make it to thew NBA Finals. I still like the Celtics to make it through the Eastern Conference. The Bulls are not battle tested and Boston has been through the playoff wars before. Miami is the x-factor in all of this. They have the talent to come out of this conference as well. In the end though I think it will be Boston. Even though the Celtics seem to be struggling a little they have the Big Three that have been battled tested before.

Don't Diss Rajon Rondo Could Come Back To Bite You

The Chicago Bulls made a statement in their route of the Boston Celtics the other night. Rajon Rondo was a guy who took everything in and kept to himself. Television announcers were not kind to Rondo and how they felt Derrick Rose dominated him. In fact many people felt Rose is much quicker than Rajon Rondo. If there is one thing people should know about Rajon Rondo is is best not to diss him.

Just when you think Rajon Rondo cannot compete that is when he is the most dangerous. Rose is having an MVP year, but do not sell Rajon Rondo short. This is the same Rondo who asked to cover a bigger more powerful Lebron James in a game. One word of warning do not diss Rajon Rondo he hears what people are saying and he will have a rebuttal on the court.

Magics Stay Hot Beat Bulls

The Orlando Magic seen there winning streak go by the wayside when they lost in Detroit, but that has not seem to slow them down one bit. In Chicago Rashard Lewis scored 16 of his 21 points in the first half as the Orlando cruised to a easy 113-94 win over the Chicago Bulls. The Magics also go good games from Dwight Howard and Hedo Turkoglu as well to help them in the win. Right now Orlando is playing well and we have to wait and see if that plays out all season long.
