Boston at New York

Premium Pick

Danny Ainge pretty much waved the white flag on this season, dealing his top two players in Green and Rondo, and has stockpiled draft picks in an effort to secure a bright future for the Celtics. Surprisingly, the deep cast of average players have responded to a soft NBA Eastern Conference. If the season ended today, Boston is a playoff team. They have a good chance to enhance that position tonight against a New York Knicks team that has certainly packed it in for the season. The Knicks' woeful offense has topped the 100-point mark just two times in their last 24 games in regulation minutes, while their last eight opponents have averaged 105 points per game. Boston has played well over the line at 23-9-1 ATS in their last 33, while the Knicks have laid down after a 10+ point home loss, having gone 8-24-1 ATS in their last 33 following one. Take Boston in this one.
