Shaquille O'Neal picks his favorite team to win the NBA and it's not the Boston Celtics!

The Los Angeles Lakers legend Shaquille O'Neal has picked
the Denver Nuggets over the Boston Celtics as the favourites to win the NBA
title.
The Celtics remain one of the most in-form teams in the
competition as they are placed in the top position in the Eastern Conference
with 48 wins and 13 defeats. Therefore, it is no surprise that many picked them
as the favourite to lift the NBA title this season.
However, O'Neal was recently quoted in a report where he
stated that he would pick the Nuggets over the Celtics for the title. "I'm
going with the field,” he said. "And my favorite in that field is the
Denver Nuggets."
The Nuggets are placed in the third position in the Western
Conference with 42 wins and 20 defeats. O'Neal further went on to warn other teams of the Miami Heat in
the playoffs, who according to him is a ‘dangerous team’.
"I mention Miami because, when you play a team that has
nothing to lose, a team that can really switch their focus like Miami, that's a
dangerous team," said O'Neal. "If the playoffs start today, and
Boston faces Miami, everybody would pick Boston. However, that organization and
that culture with them being the underdogs … all you need is Jimmy [Butler] to
go off for one or two games."
