No need to sugarcoat this fact: The NBA’s Eastern Conference is terrible. Only the Pacers and Heat are more than a game over .500. Meanwhile, 12 of the 15 Western Conference teams entered last night’s games at .500 or better.
But even in the East, no division is as pathetic as the Atlantic, of which the Nets and Knicks are at the bottom. The Raptors, at four games under .500, currently hold a half-game edge over the Celtics.
If the playoffs started today, Toronto would have home-court advantage in the first round.
Here’s a look at each team in the NBA’s worst division.
