3. Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics may have had a roller coaster of a season, but if they can pull it together in time, they will be a deadly opponent for any team to face.
Loaded with a roster of Kyrie Irving, Jayson Tatum, Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Gordon Hayward, the Celtics have some serious talent on this team. Each one of these players has All-Star potential while Irving is arguably the toughest individual opponent the Warriors have ever faced.
The problem with the Celtics right now is that they have not been able to work out the kinks. As a result, the Celtics have a horrible case of bad team chemistry.
However, not many teams in the league can compete with Boston’s depth. The Celtics second unit will likely outscore any opponent. This would be tough for the Warriors as they are currently lacking any offensive firepower on their bench.
Boston is certainly a scary opponent. The Warriors won’t be able to sleep easy until the Celtics are eliminated from the playoffs.
