Despite the official standings being finalized, let's look into a power rankings of the team's that are rocking with the best vibes heading into the final stretch of the season. This could include both on-court and off-court team chemistry, along with the team's that could pose the biggest threat to reach the NBA Finals.
1. Boston Celtics
It is difficult to not have the Boston Celtics at the top of any East power rankings, considering they own the league’s best record at 63-18. Although Boston has shown in games that they are beatable, this is the deepest they have ever looked over the years. Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis have been the most absolute perfect fit, and it has elevated the Celtics.
Time will tell if their recent playoff struggles will happen this season, but their on-court chemistry and vibes have been masterful.
