00:00let's bring an FOS reporter Colin Salau so Colin before we get to Giannis let's start with the top

00:05teams interestingly the Cavs have the highest payroll in the east and the NBA right now

00:09is it really the Knicks Cavs and maybe even the Magics to lose here yeah I think it's easy to say

00:16that and right now that's probably the logical answer but I think Rene will agree with me here

00:21it's anything can happen in a season someone can randomly get injured and also we all thought the

00:27Pistons were going to be bad again last year and the Pistons were a really good team that could

00:31easily happen in an eastern conference that's still wide open I think the Hawks could could somehow

00:36jump up again you mentioned the Magic why not why not um a team like um the Pistons again like I said

00:43why why can't Cade Cunningham take that next step um that he already took last year and maybe take

00:49another one you know you'll never know and and my favorite you'll never know team and I think

00:53everyone's you'll never know team is the Philadelphia 76ers you know um we'll sit here forever and talk

01:00about whether Embiid will play but maybe he does and maybe they're the number one seed and still get

01:06knocked out in the first round but he still could play a lot of games and the Sixers are built well so

01:11I think the east is wide open and it is logical to say Cavs Knicks but there could be teams that jump

01:17up especially when they play other weak eastern conference teams yeah
