Though don’t tell head coach Joe Mazzulla that, the Boston Celtics will be eager to defend their championship as the upcoming NBA season draws near. This previous season, Boston won an NBA record eighteen championships after defeating the Dallas Mavericks in five games during the NBA Finals.

All season long, the Celtics were the best team, and they continued to dominate the postseason. Although there will be many competitors vying for their title, they will be the favorites to win it again. With teams like the Philadelphia 76ers, Milwaukee Bucks, New York Knicks, and others trying to establish themselves, the Eastern Conference became more competitive this summer. However, Boston’s Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combination gives them
During his appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Tatum was questioned about who he thought will be participating in the NBA Finals in 2025. Regarding who he believes will play in the NBA Finals this year, he made a daring prediction.” “The Boston Celtics,” Tatum remarked, glancing at the opposition. “There will be a rematch. We will play Dallas once more.” One of the most intriguing matchups would be Boston vs. Dallas if they played again. Even though the Mavericks were handily trounced by the Celtics in five games, Dallas’ team was severely lacking in experience.
If they got another chance to win the title, it could be much tougher this time around for the Celtics. Mavericks star Luka Doncic likely learned from his egregious mistakes in the NBA Finals and would be coming for vengeance. Co-star Kyrie Irving also wasn’t very good during the games and could have a much better showing. But even with this, Boston still would pose a serious threat to repeat. It could be tough for the Mavericks to make it back as the Western Conference is expected to be a bloodbath once again. The Oklahoma City Thunder got better, the Minnesota Timberwolves have another year of experience under their belt, the Denver Nuggets aren’t going away, and there are other teams vying for the title
The NBA has as much parity in it as it has in a very long time, potentially giving fans another special season coming up. Tatum doesn’t expect too much change at the top, though.
