The Celtics have the best starting 5 in the nba. (alien.top)

It’s really not close. All 5 can drop 30 on any given day. Kp, tatum, and brown together are just too elite and versatile offensively to contain. KP spreads the floor as well which provides even more room for the jays to work. He is also a paint beast and a sharp shooter. Jrue and dwhite are also extremely sound offensively and although scoring is not as necessary for them, they can easily produce when tatum/brown are off. Not to mention defense. Jrue and dwhite are the best guard defenders in the league. Also tatum. Also KP. Also brown. It’s wraps for the league.

Let's see if the Celtics gas themselves in the regular season like the last two years before we crown them champs.

Favorites for regular season tournament for sure?

Hopefully they still lose to the heat

Yeah they legit have a 1st team All NBA player, a 2nd team All NBA player, 2 All Star caliber players, and a 1st team All defense guy that all impact metric love. It honestly is an insane starting five. I think Denver is close but the Celtics lineup is just crazy on paper, and has looked just as good on the court.

Nuggets because of Jokic, they're close tho

No shit.

[–] Large_Mango@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nuggets

Murray and a Jokic better than C’s top two

Rest of lineup perfectly compliments

I don’t think Jrue and White can do 30 any night, occasionally yea

[–] TheGreatForehead@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Possibly but the bench is complete ass

[–] JG951519@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I mean any player can drop 30 on any given night but I wouldn’t count on jrue and white doing it often

[–] Doncicfuturegoat@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Word will never read '' Jrue is sound offensively '' and can drop 30 on any given day

Gotta see if porzingis can stay healthy

“It’s really not close” is gonna make us look stupid when Denver’s core 5 is all returning
