Can the Boston Celtics three-peat as NBA champions?

Or should they keep their sights on Banner 19 for now?

For many years, the discourse surrounding the Boston Celtics was when they would finally break their newest title drought to win the long-coveted Banner 18. But then the storied ball club managed to do exactly that, hanging that NBA-record 18th banner after the Celtics beat the Dallas Mavericks in the 2024 NBA Finals.

The dust had hardly settled before Boston fans were already starting to clamor for a 19th banner for the Celtics, but some people are looking even further ahead. Analysts are starting to wonder whether it might be possible for the Celtics to win three titles in a row, a feat that has not been done for some time now.

The hosts of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast, Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance, were among them. Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about the possibility.

Where are all the Boston Celtics haters now?

The main question on everyone’s mind now is not whether Boston can win it all, but if they can forge a dynasty.

Where are all the Boston Celtics haters now that the team has finally broken through and hung a banner in the City of Boston? With Banner 18 having been earned by the core of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown with an elite supporting cast around them, the main question on everyone’s mind now is not whether Boston can win it all.

Now, it is whether the Celtics can put together a dynasty as they did in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. A man who was present for the latter of the three Boston dynastic eras, former Celtics finals MVP Cedric Maxwell sat down with Josue Pavon, the cohost of his eponymous CLNS Media podcast, to talk it all over.

Could it be the new-look New York Knicks or perhaps the Philadelphia 76ers in the Eastern Conference?

Who is the biggest threat to the Boston Celtics to win the 2025 NBA Championship and dethrone Boston after the moves that have been made around the league in free agency?

Could it be the new-look New York Knicks or perhaps the Philadelphia 76ers in the Eastern Conference? And what about the Oklahoma City Thunder, or the Dallas Mavericks, out in the league’s Western Conference? And while we are on the topic, what are the Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Lakers, and Golden State Warriors doing?

CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning was recently joined by guests Lindo Zay, Dan Scott and Anthony Vasquez recap NBA free agency in a group chat edition of the “Dome Theory” podcast to talk it over. Check it out below!

What moves do the Boston Celtics need to be in contention for another title in 2025?

At this level, every move matters.

What moves do the Boston Celtics need to make to ensure they are in contention for another championship in 2025? Can backup forward Sam Hauser be extended long-term after Boston picked up his team option for next season earlier this week?

If he can’t, is Celtics rookie shooting guard Baylor Scheierman a good option to replace him once he leaves the team in free agency? The hosts of the CLNS Media “First to the Floor” podcast, Jake Issenberg, Ben Vallis, and Wayne Spooney, took a closer look at all of the above and more on a recent episode of their show.

Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about what Boston needs to do to keep contending.

Can the Boston Celtics repeat as NBA champions?

Will this be a new dynasty for this Celtics team?

The Boston Celtics quest for Banner 18 took 16 years, but with the expectation that their team will stay intact for the next few years, will this be a new dynasty for this Celtics team?

While rumors that Al Horford planned to retire after winning his first championship circled the big man, this title put those to rest recently. With players like Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum in their prime leading this Boston roster, the sky is the limit for this franchise. On this latest episode of “The Cedric Maxwell Podcast”, CLNS Media’s Josue Pavon and Cedric Maxwell discuss what the Celtics can accomplish if they keep the core of their roster together.

Is it too soon to start thinking about the Boston Celtics winning Banner 19?

The team has hardly had time to enjoy it, but the front office has remained hard at work laying the groundwork for Boston’s 2024-25 campaign.

Is it too soon to start thinking about the Boston Celtics winning Banner 19? The proverbial dust has hardly even started to settle on the Celtics finally breaking through to win Banner 18 after a long pursuit spanning most of two decades for Boston.

The team has hardly had time to enjoy it, but the front office has remained hard at work laying the groundwork for Boston’s looming 2024-25 campaign. So if they can start their focus on extending the Celtics’ title lead over the Los Angeles Lakers and the rest of the league, why should we avoid doing so?

The folks behind the “Tandy Time” podcast recently sat down with the cohosts of our “Celtics Lab” podcast on a recent episode. Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about shifting focus to Banner 19 and much more.
