We are over a quarter of the way into the season. It is starting to be easier to predict and look at which teams in the NBA are good or bad. Let’s go through my top three NBA teams thus far into the year and give my prediction on how each team will do during the season.
- Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics are the best team in the NBA as of today, due to the fact of the Celtics having a top eight player in the NBA in Jayson Tatum, an all-star guard in Jaylen Brown, and one of the deepest rosters in the league with depth at each position including some great defensive level players in Robert Williams, reigning defensive player of the year Marcus Smart, and others. With the Celtics reaching the finals last season this Celtics team has actually gotten better with key additions like Malcolm Brogdon and veteran big Blake Griffin who gives you that veteran poise. It’s easy to say the Celtics could make the finals again and with a weaker western conference, this Celtics team could win the championship.
- Milwaukee Bucks
The Milwaukee Bucks are the second best team in the NBA even without All Star wing Khris Middleton. They still look like a great team, the Bucks may not have as good of a roster as previous years, but nonetheless they are still a phenomenal team and are a top three betting favorite to win the east, with having the best player in the NBA in Giannis Antetokounmpo, this bucks team can go very far and like the Celtics make the finals once again.
- Philadelphia 76ers
The Philadelphia 76ers have one of the highest ceilings in the NBA with a stacked roster including four potential All-Star players including Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris. This Sixers team is more of a boom or bust team as they’ve flamed out in the last few years in the playoffs against teams like the Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat but this Sixers team is better than years past, and if they can stay healthy, they can win it all this season.
