The Boston Celtics are getting healthier, and have played a lot better in recent games. One staple that has been part of the signature of this team for several years is the defense, especially on home hardwood. While the offense has failed to top the 100-point mark since game two of the season, the defense has swarmed opponents at the Garden, as Boston has allowed just 77 points per game here over their last eight. The Bobcats have failed to get out of the 70s in four of their last five on the road, and certainly aren't a team to challenge the C's defensive numbers. That means that Boston needs 100+ here to push this OVER, something they haven't managed most of the season. Play the UNDER.
