Where would the Boston Celtics be seeded if they played in the NBA’s Western Conference? We don’t just mean if they happened to have the same commanding record they have now, just out West, but if they had to play the same murderer’s row of ball clubs the rest of the Western Conference does.
With ball clubs as good as the Dallas Mavericks, Golden State Warriors, and the Los Angeles Lakers barely even in the range for the play-in tournament, there is a case that the mighty Celtics might get knocked down a peg or two if they had such tough competition on a more regular basis.
The hosts of the popular ESPN “NBA Countdown” show weighed in on this very question on a recent episode.
Check it out above to hear what they had to say about it.
