It’s an acclaimed statement “Miami will win the NBA Championship title blind folded”, while there is a lot of truth to that prediction due to their astounding star studded bench, however it could always turn out otherwise as nothing is certain in sports.

Los Angeles is hands down the National Basketball Associations favourite, winning two titles consecutively has led the basketball pundits to believe they have a strong chance of taking the next championship. Also the addition of Matt Barnes and Steve Blake to their powerhouse has added more depth to the team.

However the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat might be topping the charts to be one of the most credited and desired team in the league, the fact remains that NBA still has newly built teams who are extremely focused and determined to take down the alpha dogs.

Taking a glance at the underdogs currently present in the NBA, who certainly have a shot at the upcoming title this year.

Boston Celtics

Despite what critics may say about the aging team, the Celtics not only hold the most championships ever won in the league but they are the most consistent franchise in the history of NBA. The Boston Celtics unfortunately lost to the Los Angeles Lakers after a real close match-up this year, by 4-3. The Celtics consist of veteran players like power forward Kevin Garnett, shooting guard Ray Allen, small forward Paul Pierce, rising stars like Rajon Rondo and now the ultimate soon to be Hall-of-Famer centre Shaquille O’Neal.

The Miami Heat is already considered to be unbeatable, even though they have not played a single match yet just because of how heavy their roster weighs. So considering the commanding line-up the Celtics have, are they still not one of the strongest team? The Celtics will definitely come back with vengeance in the upcoming season and create havoc.
