Can Jayson Tatum and the Celtics win the title this season?

The Boston Celtics entered the 2022-23 NBA season with a goal to make it back to the NBA Finals. Last season, they had a chance to win the title, but Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors were more experienced, winning the finals in six games and giving Boston a bigger goal this season.

Throughout their entire campaign, the Celtics have been consistent and focused on their goals. They kicked things off with the right mindset and approach, which is why Boston is one of the favorites to win the title. Additionally, they have an All-Star who's hungry to win the title.

Jayson Tatum's play this season has been incredible. During the first half of the season, he was heavily considered to win the MVP award and often finished at the top of MVP rankings. That's not the case anymore, but he's still performing at an all-time high for his team.

Boston has three games left until their season ends, and it looks like they'll enter the postseason in second place in the Eastern Conference.

Tatum's fellow All-Star, Jaylen Brown, shared how their partnership has helped them lead the team.

"I think we both love this game tremendously and want to continue to improve," Brown said. "We compete, we push each other, we learn from each other. And a lot of our relationship has been built off of that."

With the way things have been for the Celtics, it looks like Jayson Tatum will be able to lead his squad back to the NBA Finals. This time, he's more experienced and will be ready for what's to come.
