Who do you want to finish 7th and 8th in the East?

There are several teams who are in the discussion, from Miami down to Detroit, though they're a long shot to even reach 8th, at this point. The question is, among Miami, Brooklyn, Boston, Indiana, Charlotte, and Detroit--who do you want to see in the playoffs?
 
For me, I'd love to see Boston and Indiana make it. I don't trust Miami with Wade's health, and there's something about Brooklyn that makes me question whether or not they can at least surprise Atlanta or Cleveland with a few wins. Boston is playing great ball of late, and I'd really like to get a chance to watch them for 4-5 games. Indiana is such an interesting story, especially if Paul George somehow returns (I don't see it happening, but I suppose it's possible). Charlotte would be my next pick.

I feel, aside from being a homer, that Boston's success story of being that scrappy underdog team with not a lot of talent would be someone to root for. If it was the exact same personnel with the exact same results, but was the Magic not Boston, people would like them more.
 
 
And I want to avoid Cleveland at all costs, so give Miami the 7 seed. I'd much rather have Atlanta as an 8 seed.

The Pelicans and Suns. The East sucks and conferences are stupid. I'm tired of good West teams being left out of the playoffs, and the teams that make it killing each other in early rounds, while East teams have a cakewalk to the conference finals and play a below .500 team in the first round.

Anybody over Brooklyn, I see people saying they've been playing better but truthfully in their last 10 (their 8-2) they've beaten the Knicks, Lakers, Pacers x2, Hornets, Bucks, and Wolves. Whoopie freaking do. But more than anything, that is the most boring team to watch in the league, good god are they boring.

I'd probably take Boston and Miami. Boston has guys I like. Thomas, Smart, Bradley, Crowder, Olynyk, Sullinger, etc. For Miami, who wouldn't want to see Dragic?

Miami and Indiana as long as Wade and George are good to go.
