The Boston Celtics are among the favorites to win it all in 2023, so it is not exactly going out on a limb to suggest they could be hanging a banner soon. But the odds always favor the field over any particular individual club, so it takes a little boldness for an NBA analyst to suggest a specific team is going to win the title this early in the playoffs.
But ESPN’s Tim Bontemps did exactly that, calling the league’s 2023 championship in favor of the Celtics. He also gave three reasons he thinks this is the Celtics’ year.
Speaking on a recent episode of the ESPN “NBA Crosscourt” show with host Ros Gold-Onwude, Bontemps explained why he sees good times ahead for Boston.
To hear his arguments for yourself, take a look at the clip embedded above.
