The long -term US Professional League season ended last Sunday, which led to the room PlayWhere it achieved four important victories that allowed them to enter after the season. Now, only 16 teams remain in searching to put their hands in the prestigious Larry Operation Cup. Boston Celkus returns to the qualifiers with the intention of repeating what was achieved in the previous year.
They arrived after a campaign in which they could not get the best record in the league, which is essential in achieving the championship in 2024, and they won more than 60 games, in addition to the fact that, in general, he has a very healthy list, thanks to the fact that its coach, coach, Joe SologHe was able to take care of the minutes of his main players in the last month of the season.
With the full team and in a good physical condition, Celkus is among the three great candidates. But it will not be simple, the story says that repetition is not a very common thing: the latest to achieve this was Golden State, in 2017 and 2018 (only one of eight teams since the establishment of the American Professional League in 1950).
Do not forget that Boston did not achieve this in the last large era of the team, in the 1980s, with Larry Bird As his great star, in fact, he has not wins two consecutive titles since two times in 1968-1969. Although it is honest, the possibility of returning to the finals is great if we take into account that, in the East, it seems to me that Cleveland only has what they need to eliminate, and the expected clash can only be given in the conference finals. Of course, the elimination of Cavaliers will be a very difficult company.
In OSTE, things seem more difficult to predict, as at least six teams seem to have at least they need to reach the conference title chain. Oklahoma City Thunder is the preferred, especially if it is taken into account that in the second year they follow the post -season as a number one.
Next, there is a group of excellent teams, including Rocks Houston, Los Angeles Lakers, Denver’s Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, and finally Timberwolves of Minnesota. Any of these teams will be a huge competitor to survive in the other conference. Therefore, despite the fact that Celkus does not seem to have many obstacles on the paper on their side of the key, a very feasible chain against Cleveland means a great challenge.
The list of kings is full of talent and experience, it is difficult to think of a better five -year -old than that Jason Tatumand Gilin Brownand Derek Whiteand Carspab Purzengis Y Jrue holidayWhich was added to the best sixth man who was recently appointed in the league, Payeton Briton. They already know what is required to achieve the goal; Time starring is possible, but they cannot lose any of their numbers, if they want to repeat, they will need everyone.
