Nick Wright picked the Boston Celtics to win the NBA Finals this year, and he's not backing down.
Wright gave the Celtics a big vote of confidence following their disastrous Game 2 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday's episode of "First Things First," putting Boston second in his NBA tiers behind only the Oklahoma City Thunder.
"Cost of Doing Business: Boston. Listen, you shoot 45 threes a game, the cost of that is sometimes you’re not gonna make them, and you’re gonna lose a game you shouldn’t," Wright said. "They're fine with it. They have the long view of it. I think the Celtics are gonna win the title."
While the Thunder are favored to win it all, the Celtics are still favored to win the East and have the second-best title odds behind OKC at FanDuel Sportsbook.
