As for the Celtics, they finished the 2023-24 season as the first seed in the Eastern Conference with a 64-18 record.
They beat the Dallas Mavericks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals to win their first title since the 2008 season when Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett were still on the roster.
The Boston Celtics are early favorites to win the 2025 NBA title.
But as dominant as they were during their championship run, repeating won’t be easy.
Only 13 teams have repeated as champions in NBA history.
The Los Angeles Lakers (2000/2001/2002), Miami Heat (2012/2013), and Golden State Warriors are the only teams to accomplish the feat since the turn of the millennium.
So, what will be the biggest obstacle on Boston’s road to a repeat? Celtics legend Cedric Maxwell was asked that question during Thursday’s Early Edition, and his answer may surprise you.
