As we inch ever closer to the end of the 2022-23 NBA season, the true title contenders are starting to come into focus. In addition to the Boston Celtics, in the Eastern Conference, it is safe to say that the Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers have a claim to such a status. And out in the league’s Western Conference, we can also say that the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets should also be able to say they are true contenders with confidence.
But among those five ball clubs, how would one rank them according to the strengths of such a claim for each ball club?
That was the exercise du jour of Sam Vecenie, the host of the Athletic’s “Game Theory” podcast in a recent conversation with guest Andrew Schlecht.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what the pair had to say about how these five contenders stack up.
