Can anybody actually stop the Boston Celtics?

It's no secret that the Boston Celtics have dominated the NBA this season, currently holding the best record in the NBA and being the first team to reach 60 wins.

Jayson Tatum has been having a career year, Jaylen Brown has lived up to the supermax contract, the Jrue Holiday trade and Kristaps Porzingis trade look like home runs. So is there any reason that this Boston Celtics team shouldn't be a runaway favorite to win it all?

I dove into how they've crafted this roster around Jayson Tatum to maximize what he can do, and how up and down the roster they're built to compliment their strengths. But can their weaknesses stay hidden?

Which team in the East (you can’t say “themselves”) has the best chance of beating the Celtics?👇

[MrLamoney]

Crazy thing is the starters only play 35 games together, credit mazulla for mixing it up the depth is really good

[miggyalejandro]

2 teams can stop the Celtics
1- Nuggets
2- themselves

[madheaven]

Yes any nba team they decide to underestimate

[Lumpi]

In short, this team can become one of the best teams of all time.

[mathewsousa]

They had the #2 defense until they clinched the #1 seed in the east

[Kagemusha]

Problem is that Mazzulla seems to treat close, clutch situations like Doc Rivers does: let the guys figure it out themselves. This group has shown that more often than no they can't figure it out. They need more guidance so they don't fall back on their bad habits.

jimmy butler and 4 dudes from the ymca

[wildanmalik]

Jrue, White, Brown, Tatum, Mazulla, Jokic, Jimmy if he hot if not they getting brutally swept

[spenserkao]

Pretty insightful analysis of the C’s!

[viintageraj]

Yes the New York Knicks coming to take ya lunch money Jayson better hide that bag patna

[robertj]

Yes the Boston Celtics, especially Jason Tatum

[kevinfhaney]

They're only weakness is maybe injuries could happen, really don't have any real bangers in the paint and that's it, ,, Brown and Tatum are the best duo since they came together and now they have Holiday inn KP and with white they actually have a legitimate big 5

[radwaanmohamoud]

your right about this game 2 against dallas they shot horrible 3s but their defense kept them up and won the game

[cjmd]

They been stopped so many times before and this time is no different not unless otherwise they overcome there kryptonite which is collapsing when it needed the most!

[artLopez]

If they don’t make the finals it’ll be one of the biggest joke jobs in nba history

[themindempowered]

Yes. Same narrative as the last few years. The Boston Celtics are the only ones who can stop the Boston Celtics.

[Reversingthelies]

I didn’t watch the vid but I just wanted to say yes

[MrReymoclif]

Sacramento was torturous to experience.:

[RickDanner]

Mazulla - when the cs shoot 25 3s in a row and hit 1 and mazulla says they didnt take enough 3s
