I've got high hopes for the Boston Celtics as we get towards the post-season. The franchise really needs a championship for all the talent they have, and have had for the past few seasons. I was gutted to see Marcus Smart leave as he was my favourite player, but it allowing them to add Holiday and Porzingis looks to have improved them massively. If they can't win the big prize with this roster, something is badly wrong. They are by far and away the top seed this season.
I was actually in the USA the last time Boston won an NBA Championship in 2008. They should have won at least one since then, but here we are. They froze in the playoffs v Miami Heat last season; I can't see this year's team losing to an 8th seed in the playoffs this season. If anyone is going to stop them, surely it can only be a Giannis/Lillard inspired Bucks who ramp it up in the Eastern Conference Finals, or a Jokic inspired Nuggets in the Finals.
