With the Celtics sitting at 12-4 which is the best record in the league, are they the favorites to win the championship. Imo their roster is much better than lost year even though they lost smart and some depth, they have a legit third option in Porzingis and Jrue who’s a lockdown perimeter defender and an all star. Tatum is also playing the best basketball I’ve seen him play, his shot making, rebounding and defense is much improved and tbh I can seem him making an MVP case either this year or next year. The Bucks and Suns are looking good but I don’t think they’re gonna face up well against the Celtics. The Nuggets are the only team I think can beat them just because the Nuggets have great team chemistry and even though their bench sucks, Jokic is the best player on the court and I don’t think Horford or Porzingis match up great with him.

    Too early to really pick favorites now but they’ve been the best team so far. Hard to say though because they are one of the few contenders not getting fucked by injuries right now (sad laker fan noises)
