Default Bulls win 5th in a row, Heat @ 9 in a row

It took a bit for MIA to get going but now I can't see anyone topping them in the East. They're 16-2 within the conference and have the best PPG-PPA differential within the East too @ +5 ppg. Udonis Haslem is playing pretty well and even Eddie Jones has started shooting pretty well the past few games.

CHI has been a nice surprise. That rookie class of Deng, Nocioni, Gordon, and Duhon has been pretty productive. E. Curry has produced some decent scoring games while T. Chandler is providing some rebounding and hustle. Hinrich is his usual reliable self. With versatile C/PF Antonio Davis, 3-point specialist Eric Piatkowski, and ex-Mav defensive stopper Adrian Griffin, CHI actually has some pretty good depth. They're a great team to watch.

they have a good set of role players and skiles appears to have finally found a rotation that works..chandler and gordon off the bench give them energy and antonio davis starts.

could be a sleeper in the east

I still think Curry and Chandler could develop into at least decent players. Curry is still soft rebounding and defense-wise and someone his size should be a better shot-blocker, but he's a good scorer. Chandler is pretty athletic and a good rebounder and shot=blocker.
