I think several eastern teams do have that advantage and that is why the Magic record is what it is. I mean the <b>Hawks, Hornets, Pistons, especially the Pacers</b> have a huge advantage over the Magic. You could even add in <b>the Bulls and the Wizards</b> - as they also have a much bigger & stronger front line than the Magic.
Even the 6ers have a big front line if you add in Skinner along with DC and bigTMac. Those 3 alone are better than the 3 for the Magic front line. Having Garrity a part of the starting front line is a HUGE downer anyway you look at it. Not even Hill can make up for that glaring hole in the front line.
