The Eastern Conference pecking order appears to be Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks at the top, and everyone else fighting for the right to challenge them. The two most likely contenders for the third-best team in the East square off tonight as the supersized Cleveland Cavaliers face Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers. Currently, the Sixers find themselves one game up on the Cavs. It should be a great battle between Embiid’s all-around supremacy against the defensive one-two punch of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
Time is running out for the Los Angeles Lakers, but they have a new-look lineup, and an all new bench.
