It's crunch time in Athens. Philly and Orlando are leading the Atlantic Division and Chicago is in the cellar in the Central. Let's take a look at the league right now. Sure it's only about 4 or 5 games into the shortened season, but right now is as good as any. Orlando is on top of the Atlantic Division, with Philly a close second.
New Jersey is hurting bad, that's why they have only won once.
Milwaukee is leading their division. George Karl should get all the credit. I mean, all of it. He's that good a coach. Of course, what Paul Westphal is doing in Seattle proves that Karl had a pretty awesome team, if they can go undefeated with their best player who is not named Payton going 0 for 14 from the line.
