The Celtics will win 70 games.
Now since LeBron James left for LA, the Boston Celtics are without a doubt that top team in the Eastern Conference. There is no one who can compete with them.
The closest team is the Toronto Raptors and I’m not that afraid of Kawhi Leonard. Especially since he basically sat out all of last season. The Celtics should win almost all of their games against Eastern Conference opponents and should handle the tough Western Conference teams as well too.
70 wins isn’t that far fetched. The Celtics have such a deep roster. Even if a player like Al Horford, Jaylen Brown, or Jayson Tatum gets hurt, the Celtics should be fine.
It may seem like a dream, but the C’s aren’t that far off. When you have such a great roster, the sky is the limit.
Next. Why the Boston Celtics should pursue Jamal Crawford. dark
So get ready for an amazing season Celtics fans. It will definitely be one for the record books.
