Stephen A. Smith is a massive New York Knicks fan, but even he is on the Boston Celtics bandwagon now. The Celtics and Knicks are in a tight race for the two seed in the Eastern Conference as the NBA regular season winds down.
Boston holds a one-game lead in the standings and is up two games in the loss column following New York's loss to the red-hot Charlotte Hornets on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons are without Cade Cunningham at the moment and the Cleveland Cavaliers are a distant fourth in the East. After the Celtics' impressive win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday, Smith said nobody in the East looks better than Boston right now.
