Boston at Charlotte

The NBA Eastern Conference has been somewhat of a farce this season. Currently there are five teams that are all five games under .500 or worse fighting for a playoff berth, and are seperated by just 2.5 games covering seventh place to 11th place. Two of those meet tonight in Charlotte as the surprising Boston Celtics, who dealt away Green and Rondo, their top players, and Charlotte, a playoff team a year ago, but struggling this season to survive. Boston is playing at a playoff level at 16-11 in their last 27 games and are 8-4 in their last 12 vs. a team below .500. Charlotte is just 3-8 in their last 11, and has been playing their way out of the playoffs instead of in. Boston's deep roster has them at 34-16-1 ATS in their last 51 on no days rest. Make the play on Boston.
