The Celtics will be in a bad mood after barely losing at home to the Lakers on Sunday. Boston has still won 12 of its last 15 games while Portland has lost three of its past four games. The Trail Blazers were fortunate to pull out a 107-104 victory over lowly Detroit on Sunday as CJ McCollum scored 41 points and hit a key three-pointer down the stretch. This is the first meeting of the season between these teams and the Celtics are 10-4 ATS their last 14 games playing with one day of rest and 11-4 ATS their last 15 games overall. Also, Boston is 13-5 ATS over the last 18 meetings at Portland. The Blazers are 2-6-2 ATS in their last 10 games as home underdogs and they're playing without Damian Lillard, who is out with a groin injury. Take the Celtics.
