As long as Giannis stay healthy it will be back to back and maybe to back Championships. The drama free team of the NBA. They do not get credit they deserve because there is no drama on the team. This is Giannis Team and Milwaukee is his City.

Suns have only won 19 of 21 games played in 2022 but the Celtics are the hottest team. good take

[isaiah]

Give me Phoenix, they have been out for revenge on everybody this year, have one of the easiest schedules down the stretch, and just added two guys who gave them a combined 24 points off the bench in their debuts. They are about to go on another 10+ game win streak after losing 1 game after an 11 game win streak. Its not the flashy pick but give me the Suns to win it all

[DecAllTimeAlways]

1. Phoenix Suns
2. Milwaukee Bucks
3. Memphis Grizzlies
4. Golden State Warriors
5. Miami Heat

ESPN TALKING ABOUT THE CELTICS??!! Best defense in the league and building our big 3 with the J's and Time lord 🍀🍀🍀

[strawhat]

I’m appreciate you guys bring it back the full video because last week was like two minutes and I was upset thanks for putting it back

[Kashsneakers]

This is the same guy who said the worst signing of the off season was derozen…

[Pashya]

Please ESPN, take this guy to report on cricket or something.

[Muneeb]

ESPN talking about the Celtics is as rare as Ben Simmons hitting a 3

[dbreiden]

Very up and down all year for the Bucks..

Injuries and lineup changes is the reason for most it..

But they need Pat and Lopez back to full strength to have any chance by playoff time..

[deltadan]

This video was really nice, great takes by this guy

[saminislam]

I think last season bucks team was better than this year, had Forbes, Tucker, Lopez has been injured. Also, Heat, Sixers are better this year. It will be a tough

[elbolsillo]

Phoenix couldn’t stop Giannis after Saric and Craig got injured, with Ayton getting in foul trouble for basically breathing on him. Phoenix went out and got McGee and Biyombo and traded for Craig. With those new pieces, we all saw how they handled Milwaukee. I really hope for a Phoenix-Milwaukee rematch.
Also, I don’t think CP3 was anywhere near 100% healthy the entire playoffs. Phoenix is hungry.

[What-kwox]

It’s weird how national media always focus on the big ticket items-stories, even though this year those big tickets aren’t performing. But that’s the dishonesty of ESPN and media .

[MikeJay-ontt]

Skinny Harden and Embiid is an interesting and can pose a threat when healthy, But Milwaukee are the favorites to win the championship again by either playing either the Suns or the Warriors in the finals.

[JKLauderdale]

It's actually kind of amusing - The Nets lost the season but won the trade (2:1st rd picks, Seth Curry and a viable big man in Drummond) whereas Philly may have shored up their season's chances of a deep run to the Finals but lost the trade by giving up their shooter and getting back a guy who's only 50/50 to sign after he learns how Doc Rivers coaches.

Harden's had a ride on easy street when it comes to head coaches allowing him free reign, that's come to an abrupt end in Feb, 2022. I think Embiid and Harden could make an amazing pairing and we already know that Doc Rivers and Embiid work well together. What we DON'T know is how well, Harden and Doc mesh and that's going to be interesting. It may well be that Harden will be pouting his way off a third team and Philly is left with nothing to show for "The Process" but a used up Embiid and an empty bag of "what if".

[FaithfulFumoFan]

The Freak is going back to back. I fear for any team that stands in his way especially the big market teams. It seems like he's on a personal mission.

[TerickLamontVisuals]

Bucks not getting passed Miami this year.

[elbolsillo]

“The NBA’s hottest team, the Boston Celtics, winning 10 out of their last 11 games.”
That’s weird, I thought winning 16 out of 17 games was statistically better than 10/11 (Phoenix Suns). Maybe Timothy’s calculator was malfunctioning or something...

[MOE__]

I mean anything can happen I got bucks sixers bulls or heat coming out the east but that’s just my opinion
