San Antonio is right behind Dallas and the Clippers for playoff seeding. The Spurs have great balance at #11 in the NBA in scoring and #10 in points allowed. They face a Boston team that is a long way from home and playing its second straight road game. The Celtics will play a sixth straight game without Isaiah Thomas (21.4 ppg), who has a bruised lower back. Boston is off a loss at OKC and the UNDER is 9-3 following a Celtics loss, as well 5-0 UNDER against a team with a winning percentage above .600. San Antonio bounced back from Tuesday's embarrassing 104-100 overtime loss at New York with a 114-103 victory the next night at Milwaukee. The Spurs are 5-2 ATS at home in their last seven. The San Antonio Spurs have won six straight over the Celtics, who were blown out when these teams met back in November. San Antonio scored 66 second-half points to cruise to a 111-89 win Nov. 30 at Boston and the Celtics are 1-4-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Play San Antonio and the game total UNDER.
