ESPN personality surprisingly leaves Boston Celtics off top contenders list

ESPN personalities are known to have outrageous takes on their various shows. On Tuesday morning, Chris Russo had an outlandish take where he listed his top five championship contenders and surprisingly omitted the Boston Celtics.

.@MadDogUnleashed's top five NBA title contenders for 2024:

2. Nuggets
3. Bucks
4. Kings

This list is truly hilarious, as Russo put the Sacramento Kings and Oklahoma City Thunder ahead of the Celtics. The Kings and Thunder are both inexperienced teams that are nowhere close to the Cs level.
