DabbundoThem and Phoenix, to me, look like teams who probably take a step back this year.

Houseright. Joe House?

HouseI'm going to go with Boston to win the Atlantic Division. They are the favorite to win the Atlantic at plus 170.

HouseThis is a corollary to what I think is one of my favorite bets on the board, which is the Celtics over their forecasted win total. It moved all the way, went from 49 and a half all the way up to 51 and a half. I think this team is perfectly poised as a regular season team to implement Joe Mazzula's vision to shoot 500 threes a game.

HouseAnd with Mitchell Robinson, you just can't overlook how impactful Mitchell Robinson giving them additional possessions, high value possessions is going to translate into regular season success. And I'm really emphasizing the regular season because I'm going to fade the hell out of the Celtics team when it comes to postseason. But right for this is a regular season bet for them to win the division.

HouseThe Knicks are right behind them. The Sixers are trying to figure things out. and Dream has a perspective on the Raptors that he'll get to. But if you parlay Boston to win the Atlantic with their prohibitive favorite to win the Pacific, which is the LA Lakers, and that division is an absolute train wreck, plus 349.
