Team Outlook:

The Boston Celtics enter the 2018-19 NBA season as one of the few teams whose goals and expectations for the season are for a Championship only.

Boston will compete all season for the top seed in the Eastern Conference and will have to battle it out with the Philadelphia 76ers, Toronto Raptors, Milwaukee Bucks and the Washington Wizards. The Celtics have what many can say is the best roster in the entire NBA top to bottom and can dominate on any given night on both the offensive side of the basketball court and the defensive end of the basketball.

With a healthy Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward, how far can the Celtics go in the 2018-19 NBA season?

Team Record Predictions : 56 – 26
