Boston at Detroit

Premium Pick

The Boston celtics have a lot of banners hanging in the Garden, but there will be none added this season. Last night they may have played their most forgettable game in franchise history, losing to the Philadelphia 76ers. I don't care how good or how bad things are going for a team, all professional athletes have a great sense of pride. I truly expect Boston to come out angry and focused tonight on the road in a very winnable game. Detroit has shown little focus or energy down the stretch where they are 2-10 over their last 12 games. Boston may not have the stars of the past, but they do play a lot of people. They have also been 7-3 ATS in their last 10 on 0 rest. The Pistons are just 1-9 ATS in their last 10 vs. the East, and 0-6 ATS when following a loss of 10+ in their last six. Take the Celtics.
