Its the Cavaliers world, and the rest of the teams are just living in it. The Celtics look to be the biggest threat along with the Raptors. The real battle could be at the other end of the standings, between Brooklyn and Philadelphia, for the No. 1 draft pick.Atlanta HawksDwight Howard has landed in Atlanta, and he seems happy for the time being, while Paul Millsap will play the stretch four position and allow Howard room to operate inside. Could they mimic the Orlando 2008-09 season?RosterLost: Al Horford, Jeff Teague, Lamar PattersonAdded: Dwight Howard, Jarrett Jack, Malcolm Delaney, Taurean Prince, DeAndre Dembry, Isaia CordinierStar: Dwight Howard. He looks rejuvenated and has plenty to prove to the league. Breakout: Dennis Schroder. The starting point guard role is his, and he should flourish in it.Last Season: Same old Atlanta, no finisher. 48-34Projection: Dwight the difference maker, 48-34 record (4th)Boston CelticsTheyve brought in Al Horford and No. 3 draft pick Jaylen Brown. Is this their time? Are the pieces finally falling the right way for the Celtics to return to the top and be consistent contenders?RosterLost:?Jared Sullinger, Evan Turner, John HollandAdded: Al Horford, Jaylen Brown, Gerald Green, Guerschon Yabusele, Ante Zizic, Demetrius Jackson, Ben Bentil, Abdel Nader.Star: Isaiah Thomas. He will lead the Celtics back into the Eastern Conference Finals as the No. 2 seed.Breakout: Avery Bradley. He is always a contender for Defensive Player of the Year but this season he can really exploit the other end of his game.Last Season: Showed theyre almost ready to return to the top; 48-34 Projection: Should the Cavs be worried? 53-29 record (2nd)Brooklyn NetsThings have been ugly in Brooklyn for a long time, and the forecast for darkness lingers. Theyve cleared out the big contracts and look set to bottom out before attacking the trade period or waiting for free agency next year.RosterLost:?Donald Sloan, Thaddeus Young, Jarrett Jack, Sergey Karasev, Shane Larkin, Markel Brown, Wayne Ellington, Willie Reed.Added: Anthony Bennett, Jeremy Lin, Trevor Booker, Randy Foye, Justin Hamilton, Joe Harris, Luis Scola, Greivis Vasquez, Caris LeVert, Isaiah WhiteheadStar: Jeremy Lin.

He has so much talent waiting to explode out of him; this is the season it happens.Breakout: Roy Hibbert. We havent seen the Roy of old since he left Indiana. His defensive prowess will return in Charlotte.Last Season: Good team, just not great; 48-34Projection: Things going south; 39-43 record (9th)Chicago BullsTheir off-season strategy has been to buck the NBA trend of falling in love with the three-point shot to load up on players who can shoot only from inside 20 feet. Fred Hoiberg will need to pull a rabbit out of the hat if they want to compete in the playoffs.RosterLost:?Aaron Brooks, Pau Gasol, ETwaun Moore, Joakim Noah, Mike Dunleavy, Derrick Rose, Justin Holiday, Cameron BairstowAdded: Denzel Valentine, Paul Zipser, Isaiah Canaan, Spencer Dinwiddle, Rajon Rondo, Dwyane Wade, Robin Lopez, Jerian GrantStar: Jimmy Butler.

Did you expect it to be anybody else?Breakout: Kevin Love. Sounds weird, we know, but hell return to Minnesota form.Last Season: Champions. 57-25 record.Projection: Can the Cavs do it again? We say theyll post a 59-23 record (1st).Detroit PistonsStan Van Gundy is a mastermind who will extract all that he can out of this talented squad.

Hes a monster inside the paint on both ends.Breakout: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.

High-octane big man who runs the floor all day long.Last Season: Heading in the right direction; 45-37.?Projection: Watch out Eastern Conference; 48-34 record (6th).Miami HeatBaffling is the best way to describe the Heats off-season. They didnt want to pay Dwyane Wade the big bucks so they let him walk, and now the Chris Bosh looks likely to stall. The glory days are well and truly over.RosterLost:?Dwyane Wade, Luol Deng, Joe Johnson, Gerald Green, Dorell Wright, Amare StoudemireAdded: Luke Babbitt, Dion Waiters, Wayne Ellington, James Johnson, Willie Reed, Beno Udrih, Derrick WilliamsStar: Hassan Whiteside.

Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo look primed to lead the Bucks, and are putting the rest of the conference on notice. Fear the Deer.RosterLost:?Jerryd Bayless, Greivis Vasquez, Tyler Ennis, Johnny OBryant, Damien Inglis, O.J Mayo.Added: Thon Maker, Malcolm Brogdon, Mirza Teletovic, Jason Terry, Michael Beasley, Matthew Dellavedova.Last Season: Youth, and found their feet late; 33-49.Projection: This is the Bucks time to shine; 45-37 record (5th).Star: Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek Freak is an enigma, and he will continue to puzzle teams this season with his unique skills.Breakout: John Henson. Going to show that he is one of the better rim protectors in the game.New York KnicksDerrick Rose made the bold proclamation that the Knicks and the Warriors had each built a super team.

The draw card, but can his game continue to expand?Breakout: Brandon Jennings. Hell love the attention NYC brings, and will shine under the bright lights.Last Season: Apart from Kristaps; it was dire in NYC. 32-50.Projection: Knicks fans and media will not be happy; 35-47 record (12th).Orlando MagicPlenty of changeover in Orlando, and a couple of odd picks up for big money. The Jeff Green signing is a bit perplexing, as theyre quite loaded at the small forward position, but frontcourt of Bismack Biyombo and Serge Ibaka is a defensive nightmare for opposing teams. Can Orlando produce some magic and make a playoff push?RosterLost: Brandon Jennings, Victor Oladipo, Ersan Ilyasova, Shabazz Napier, Andrew Nicholson, Dewayne Dedmon, Jason Smith, Devyn MarbleAdded: Serge Ibaka, Jeff Green, Bismack Biyombo, Jodie Meeks, DJ Augustin, Stephen Zimmerman, Cliff Alexander, Damjan Rudez, C.J WilcoxStar: Nikola Vucevic.

The process is taking a long time to pay off, although they looked like they were on their way before injury struck Ben Simmons. Joel Embiid will still ensure plenty of people tune in for their games.RosterLost :Kendall Marshall, Ish Smith, Carl Landry, Christian Wood, Isaiah CanaanAdded: Ben Simmons, Dario Saric, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, Furkan Korkmaz, Jerryd Bayless, Gerald Henderson, Sergio Rodriquez.Star: Ben Simmons. Brought all of the hype to breaking point, but can he make the floor?Breakout: Joel Embiid. Finally on the floor and looks set to showcase his skillset.Last Season: Tanking in full effect; 10-72.Projection: Better but not great; 21-62 record (15th).Toronto RaptorsLooked to be genuine threats to the Eastern Conference throne last year but peaked too early. Can they time their run better this season and take down the King?RosterLost:?Bismack Biyombo, James Johnson, Luis Scola, Jason ThompsonAdded: Jakob Poeltl, Jared Sullinger, Pascal SiakamStar: DeMar DeRozan. He signed a mega contract and now its time to deliver.Breakout: Terrence Ross.
