The Boston Celtics may be the favorites to win the 2023 NBA Finals, but that does not mean everyone agrees with the line in Sin City. And we are not just talking about salty fans of other ball clubs — even some prominent analysts have some serious misgivings about the Celtics. Could they know something we do not?
