Boston at New Orleans

The Boston Celtics are buying time for what appears to be a bright future. Danny Ainge has loaded the Celtics with ample first round draft picks starting next season. Despite cleaning out most of the notable talent, the Celtics are believe it or not just two games out of the #8 and final playoff spot. New Orleans has played rather well of late, but despite that fact they have only won one of their last 13 games by more than seven points, and Boston has proven to have a deep enough roster to put up a decent challenge. Cleveland has been the only team to best them by more than eight points in their last 15 games, and I think they are competitive enough to at the very least come in below the number. Go with the points on Boston.
