Premium Pick

This should be a good game between two elite teams. Boston gets a chance for revenge following a 105-116 loss to Houston on February 11. Boston is a very tough out at home where they are 23-5 on the season and 17-11 ATS in those games, winning by double-digits on average. This season, the Celts are 20-6 ATS vs. winning teams and 24-13 ATS vs. high-tempo teams like Houston (those averaging 88+ shots per game) and 19-10 ATS vs. high-scoring teams like the Rockets (those averaging 110+ points per game). Mark D'Antoni teams have trouble maintaining momentum has his teams are just 44-69 ATS following back-to-back double-digit wins. Take the Celtics here.
