Only other time there’s been a stretch of 6 years when 6 different teams won the Finals is 1975-1980 when the winners were Warriors, Celtics, Trailblazers, Bullets, Supersonics, Lakers. There has never been a 7 year stretch of 7 different teams winning. 2025 could be the first time it will ever happen. Parity in the league this league has been fantastic.

    You’re getting downvoted but I actually do see some vague parallels between this Celtics team and the 14-15 Warriors. Strength-in-Numbers approach to bball where the stars’ accomplishments were minimized due to (1) playing within their system and abilities and (2) playing whoever’s in front of them even if it’s an “easy” matchup. The team stays largely intact over the summer and the hunger to prove folks wrong grows over the summer.

    Certainly not saying the Celtics are gonna become the 15-16 Warriors, but they’ve got the motivation and the team to come back locked in af for next season.
