CELTICS 40-1 to win it all, 20-1 to win East
Falling fast.
Falling? When?
They've generally been grouped as the 4-5-6 seed in the East which seems fair.
Its hard to bet against the Nets/Durant but they seem combustible. I don't trust them.
I like the Heat as my value pick at 35 to 1, Celts at 40 isn't bad.
I suspect that the Celts will gel as a team as the season progresses and they learn to play under Coach U.
There is a shitload of young talent on that team, (as mentioned a couple of weeks ago they have 8 homegrown 1s) several of whom were developmentally sidetracked by covid, for the past 2 years.
And if luck reverts to the mean, this snakebit team, will be the luckiest team in the NBA for the next few years.
Its only fair.
Get 'em while they're cheap.
