    New Jersey vs Boston.....trends say take the Nets....any chance for them?

    One trend I follow says the Nets are the play. Nets are 4-0 ATS, Celtics are 3-3 since the all star break.

    Any ideas?

    with devin harris possibly having the flu and the celts winning 71% of games on the road and nets winning 42% at home i think celts are the play here.

    the biggest difference is when you compare the celts D vs the nets D, and that justifies the 7pt spread right there. i have this one capped at a 12 pt celtics win.

    I locked in the Celtics last night at -6. Boston is 7-0 SU in its last seven against Jersey and is 5-0 SU and ATS vs the Nets.

    I looked this game over from every angle and with New Jersey coming off a game last night and with the Celtics 9-2 vs. the number on two days rest. All signs point to Boston.

    SBR forum's record in responding to questions like these....

    I have posted questions like these about 15 times. Where I have made a pick using my math model but after looking at it a second time I feel unsure.

    Guess what the forum's record is in providing insight into these questions.

    Did you guess 0-15?

    Every time, if I did not make a play I liked based on forum input, the play won. If I did make a play that I previously did not like based on forum input, the play lost.


    I think you honky mo fos tell me the opposite of what you really think just to **** with me.

    I took the Nets + the points. And because I had Boston 1Q and Boston 1H I took Nets 2H using the logic "duh, if Boston win first half, and I think nets will win game, then nets must win 2nd half, duh".
