    Celtics -13 (NJ has Deron Williams and Kris Humphies confirmed out)

    Thoughts?

    How can Boston not obliterate the Nets here. Pierce back tonight for Boston as well. NJ has no one!

    moneyline is ridiculously high even before this news. It was set at -2000 for the last hour+.

    Vegas did the same thing in the MIA/bobcats game. Vegas knew that miami was going to blow charlotte out of the building that night so they placed a ridiculous -2350 ML on the game. It was at miami -14.5 but they didn't want to break the -15 threshold number, so they placed a rally high ML on it.

    Immediately I put $1000 ion miami to cover the 14.5.. they won by 39

    same thing here with boston. All the signs show a 20+ win for boston. I locked it down at -13 with 5 units (500$)

    Yep Boston looks real good here. Might take them in the 1Q and 1H and hopefully skip out on a rough backdoor cover late.

    ^ i was thinkin that. Boston doesn't mind teams hanging around as long as they win.

    I may bet the nets and hope for a very slim middle. Then bet the half and/or quarter.

    I just wanted to grab it fast before it moved because I've had great success with it. But boston is not run like most teams where they place value in a blowout

    with that said, they did cover the Wiz in the first game vs them at a high number, and the Wiz are a much better team than the Nets are without Deron and Humph

    They barely covered that first wiz game by a point, then couldn't cover the double digits the next day. I do agree that blowouts are not a priority for this Boston team that is going to need to save every minute they can for their starters in the shortened season as the bench is terribly shallow.

    Celtics don't typically blow teams out.

    You are right... but the Nets typically get blown out by good teams.

    Celtics 1H ML + Heat 1H ML parlay

    like others have said, don't trust the celtics to blow out anyone, really.

    Its funny, last year the Nets did pretty well in the 2 or 3 (?) games Farmar started when Harris was out. Farmar has been out of the rotation completely this season and its a nice chance for him to get some minutes. Dont get me wrong, i think Farmar is trash, but he capable of having 1 good game here and there. Never know.

    Of the few times they blew a team out last year, one of them were the Nets.

    Celtics are a lottery team. Those old farts don't play defense anymore.
