Boston is 45-35-1 UNDER this season after Monday's 111-89 trouncing of Toronto. That game went UNDER by 12.5 points. It was the seventh straight UNDER for the Celtics, who set the tone for Game 5 immediately with a strong defense from the start. All five games of this series have stayed UNDER, mostly because the Raptors are shooting only 40.4 percent. Kemba Walker scored 21 points for Boston on Monday and Boston's starters outscored Toronto's starters 93-45. The UNDER is 18-7-1 in the Raptors' last 26 games against teams with winning percentages of at least .600, and they are 18-7-1 UNDER after losing by at least 10 points. Coincidentally, the UNDER also is 18-7-1 in Boston's last 26 games following a win. Look for these trends to continue and play the UNDER.
