Milwaukee at Boston

Premium Pick

The Boston Celtics have come a long way in a short time. Three years ago this team won a paltry 25 games. With a win tonight they will enter the Eastern Conference playoffs as the top seed. They have worked too hard to allow that to slip away at home tonight. The Bucks will be in the playoffs as well, but it is tough to see this team mounting a challenge with an offense that has gone into the deep freeze. The Bucks have shot 42.9% over their last four games, and have averaged just 86.8 points per game. That is problematic vs. a deep and offensive Boston team that has averaged 109.5 points per game at home on the season. Since after Christmas, Boston is 22-5 SU at home, and have averaged 111.9 ppg here. Play on Boston.
