‘Ain’t good enough’: Draymond Green claims Celtics must ‘win it all’ or it’s a ‘failure’

Final Four of the Eastern Conference is where the Boston Celtics are. The teams they will play are the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers. Competing for the NBA championship, the victor advances to the NBA Finals. The Golden State Warriors caused the Celtics to lose in the 2022 NBA Finals.

It was that Warriors squad that Draymond Green played on and won his fourth championship. The seasoned forward explained why there is so much pressure on the Celtics to win a title this year in the most recent installment of his podcast, “The Draymond Green Show”.

Eight Eastern Conference finals have been attended by the Celtics. Once in that round, they made it further. They assembled their team with the goal of winning now. For the whole of the NBA regular season, they have dominated. Boston needs a championship within the next two years, given the talent on the team and the corresponding luxury tax bill.

Therefore, there is a great deal of pressure on them to overcome this obstacle. They cannot, of course, see too far into the future. There will be no easy opponent for them in the conference finals. Being an exceptional team is a prerequisite for making it this far into the playoffs. It is anticipated that the Celtics will advance past the conference finals despite this. Champions is what is expected of them. This team’s reputation will follow them for the duration of their tenure if they are unsuccessful.

Enough developing years have passed for the Celtics. During the summer, they fully committed to their game. Time to live up to the media hype now.
