The Boston Celtics just sold for $6.1 BILLION… is this the new era of NBA ownership? And wait ‘til you hear who we picked to make the Final Four. You’re not gonna like it.In this episode of The Crossover, we break down the record-shattering sale of the Boston Celtics, the long-term implications for the NBA, and how these massive numbers connect to rising player contracts — including SGA’s projected $73M/year deal.Then it’s all things March Madness — we reveal our Final Four predictions, sleeper teams, and Cinderella picks like Saint Mary’s, Liberty, Yale, and UC San Diego. Can Duke make a run if Cooper Flagg is healthy? Why are people sleeping on Colorado State and Akron?
