Boston at Denver

The Boston Celtics have a huge chore in front of them as they will play the rest of the season without Rajn Rondo, and Jered Sullinger. That puts a lot of pressure on aging stars Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett, who just can't do it on extended minutes anymore. The high altitude of Denver could be telling on them here late in the game. Denver is rolling over everyone at home where they are 22-3 on the season and are making noise in the West with seven straight wins on home hardwood with Oklahoma City and Indiana amongst the victims. Boston has slipped especially on the road vs. a winning team where they are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11. On three or more days of rest, the Nuggets are 40-19-3 ATS in their last 62, so play on Denver.
