The Eastern Conference team Boston Celtics (64/18) are cruising towards one of their finest NBA seasons this year, finishing at the top in the points table with a whopping 780 points in 82 games. However, despite being the favorites to hold the NBA title, former Basketball player Shaquille O’Neal has ruled out the chances of Celtics groups to become the champions.
Celtics, who clinched their playoff round 1 game against the eighth-seeded Miami Heat by 114-94 are cruising towards the historic season win after falling short in the 2022 finals and the seventh game of the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals. On Sunday, at TD Garden, Celtics’ Jayson Tatum scored a massive 23 points which was complemented by Derrick White’s 20 points to earn a lead on Heat in the round 1.
Despite the sensational show by the Celtics, Shaq is suspicious of their chances considering their past results and their tendency to not shoot the ball well on certain occasions. Hosting on TNT, Shaq said, “The Celtics have times where they don’t shoot the ball well and they settle and they can’t be beaten. This is why I think they will not be the champions.”
