detroit and orlando.
the pistons not only have the personnel to do it, but they also have the mental toughness and experience to accomplish the task. last year's collapse can be attributed to overconfidence coupled by bad coaching by flip. i don't think they'll be making the same mistake again.
orlando. no celtic can guard howard one on one, not even garnett. this means that the celtics will have to double giving the magic shooters alot of open looks. they are currently ranking near the top of the rankings in terms of 3 points attempted and made. failing that, the orlando perimeter is very big and can overwhelm the celtic defenders, especially allen if they choose to post them up.
forget the cavs. i highly doubt that they can win a 7 game series against the celtics.

The Pistons. They have a solid nucleus of excellent basketball players (not superstars) that know how to play within themselves, plus Detroit is still one of the best defensive teams especially in the playoffs. If they stay healthy throughout the season, the Celtics will have to go through the proverbial eye of the needle.

Orlando Magic: They have the inside presence in Dwright Howard to stop K.G, both team are decent on defense. Offensively Celtics are better with Allen and Pirece. I think the celtics will win the East, but Orlando has the best chance of challenging them.

The Pistons. I think they match up well with Boston's Big 3 with Hamilton, Prince, and Wallace. Plus, the Pistons have Billups, McDyess, and a solid bench.

Pistons, Cavs, and perhaps the Nets if they can play the game with a even pace for 4 quaters.
Oh and the Magics of course.

The Detroit Pistons are a distinct possibility!!

(Bail it clearly says EAST which last I checked did not include Texas...)
Detroit, Orlando or perhaps Cleveland could give them a run for their money.
p.s. Kobe sucks

He said EAST. SA is not an EAST team. and they suck and hell of boring to watch. The Suns/Warriors can beat him away from SA. Magic can beat the C. they done it once w/ Dwight Howard(hot lately)
