To truly be a contender for an NBA title in a given season, the ball club needs to be among the very best teams in the league as well as having a fair amount of luck to get all the way to the finals without an injury to one of their key players diminishing their ability to win at the highest levels.

And now with the league at the end of the 2022-23 season, the Boston Celtics find themselves one of the elite teams in terms of holding a top-two spot in the Eastern Conference with good health among their top players. For this reason, the Celtics have made ESPN senior analyst Stephen A. Smith’s top five teams in the league.

Dubbed “Stephen’s A List of the Top” by the man himself, you will need to watch the clip we have embedded below to hear where Smith has Boston slated to close out the season.
