I think that it will be close (between Boston, Philly and New York) especially since the condensed season favors the Sixers youthful legs as opposed to the Celtics being on their last legs and the Knicks having little to no depth. If either one of the Celtics or Knicks suffer any sort of injury to their main rotation, I could see Philly sneaking in their and finishing better than them. In the end, I do think that the superior talent on the Knicks and Celtics will end up prevailing and that the Sixers will finish about 3-5 games behind them. I know one thing, though, I will definitely be checking out more Sixer games this year. I've always like Collins as a coach and been a big fan of Holiday since he came into the league (he was my number 2 choice behind DeRozan in the draft and when I saw him fall to 17 I desperately wanted Colangelo to find a way to get another pick), but I never really caught many of their games last year. I'll make sure that changes this year as they are a very entertaining team.
