Forget the Warriors’ recent dynasty. Now all of that is in the past. Golden State is finished as an NBA power. The Warriors are a mere shell of their former selves and a franchise that has no chance at a title for 2020. By contrast, the Celtics are renewed as a top NBA bets contender. Getting rid of cancerous quitter Kyrie Irving was the first step to getting things right. Irving will go down in infamy for giving up in the playoffs last spring. The account of his departure did the hard-working culture of head coach Brad Stevens return.
