Boston at Toronto

The wake of the horrible terrorist attack in Boston caused postponement of the Celtics last home game with Indiana. It would not surprise me if Boston played this game with a lot of heart to create a much needed feel good for fans back in Boston. The one thing that Boston has is a lot of depth, which has helped them overcome a lot of injuries. Even the role players, who will get extended minutes here, should be playing well and focused. Toronto has had another season that has ended in disappointment, as they have won just 33 games, and were not even a marginal playoffs team. The Rudy Gay trade gave them a brief lift as they went 6-4 in his first 10 games, but just 10-15 in the last 25 - not much different than where they were before. Toronto has played five of their last seven to the UNDER, while Boston is always on the court with a defensive presence. And while there is nothing to play for in the standings, there is a lot to play for back home, which should provide a defensive presence on the floor. Play on Boston and the UNDER.
