Boston (5-2 ATS run) is playing hard for young coach Brad Stevens, off an OT loss at Chicago as a big dog. Now they are rested and back home, and the Celtics are 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Charlotte is in town, a terrible all around team. Charlotte is 25th in the NBA in scoring and 18th in points allowed. Charlotte is on a 1-5 ATS run and 4-0 UNDER the total working on one day of rest. Boston will be able to shut down this weak offense, and the Celtics are 6-2-1 UNDER the total playing on one day of rest, plus 5-1 UNDER the total against a team with a losing record. When these teams meet, the home team is 5-2-1 ATS and the UNDER is 7-2. Play the Boston Celtics and the game UNDER the total.
