What will tonight’s season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers tell us about the Boston Celtics?

The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers start their respective slate of games for the 2022-23 NBA regular season with a tilt against each other that will weigh even more heavily than any meeting between the two Atlantic Division rivals already does.

With both teams in the mix to represent the league’s Eastern Conference in the 2023 NBA Finals, what we see on the court Tuesday night might well be a preview of the 2023 NBA Eastern Conference Finals. What are some of the predictions to be made for this season’s opening game, and both ball clubs moving forward as they work towards their ultimate goals of hanging a banner?

The hosts of the CLNS “A-List” podcast got together with the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Keith Pompeii to talk over the opener and the two team’s respective season outlooks.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what the foursome had to say about all things Celtics-Sixers.
