1. The Raptors will be in the fight for a playoff spot IMO. The East is totally unpredictable this year. I still think that the Raptors are one more year away... but they'll be fun to watch this year. T.J. Ford is going to make a big difference..
2. Depends on their backcourt. Wallace is going to help out that team in a big way in the frountcourt.. he solidifies them. Gordon and Kurt Heinrich need to continue their development in order for the Bulls to make a run at it. They'll be a good team IMO in the second tier of the east (with Washington, Detroit etc..)... but I don't think they can challenge New Jersey and Miami yet.
3. Brandon Roy in Portland. He should get a lot of playing time and the guy has ridiculous skills. Maybe Morrison in Charlotte.. he'd be a 'sexy' pick.
