    Celtics/Hawks line

    What is up with this line, Hawks -10, you kidding me?

    Are the celtics playing Doc Rivers at Center or something?

    Anyone heard news of Celtics sitting starters tonight?

    Starters Im referring to....

    "The Celtics will be without Pierce, K.G., Rajon Rondo (back), Ray Allen (ankle) and Mickael Pietrus (knee) on Friday. Clearly, Doc Rivers wants to get his players right for the postseason, and it will be interesting to see what kind of lineup is on the floor for Boston on Friday night. Avery Bradley will see a ton of minutes, and the Celtics will be short-handed in Atlanta."

    This is your active players for Boston tonight: Avery Bradley, Keyon Dooling, Sasha Pavlovic, Brandon Bass, Marquis Daniels, Greg Stiemsma, E'Twaun Moore, Ryan Hollins.

    I understand -650 is an extremely high price for a ML, but if they played this game 100 times, would Boston win once? How is Boston supposed to score any points? The Hawks can pass Boston in the standings with a win tonight. Won't they be 100% motivated to win this game?

    Does anyone know how big of a bet 5Dimes will take here? Can I bet $6,500 to win $1,000?

    Will any books offer live betting on this game? I imagine these Boston reserves could catch Atlanta off guard early, but I want to be able to make very large wagers on the Hawks ML as the game progresses.

    I think bet365 will offer live betting for this one. If you could get it at -400 it would be golden. But then again, if Hawks actually come to this game trying hard to win it (which they should), they'll dominate this Celtics team from start to finish and the price may only get worse.

    I think the only risk here is that the Hawks have no way to prepare for a bunch of guys they have never seen before. Boston could catch them off guard early. In the 2nd Half / 4th Quarter Boston will not be able to score any points. There's just not enough offense in that lineup. I found my live betting option. I will be making some very large bets tonight.

    Hawks will SU no doubt, but covering a double digit spread in a big time letdown spot isn't a guarantee.

    Yeah I am not advocating the spread at all. My opinion is that no matter what happens early, Atlanta will win this game down the stretch. Boston will have zero offense when it matters.

    Him and the King's Isaiah Thomas grew up together. Both of their hoop dreams are coming true. Followed both of them very closely prior to the NBA, really happy to see them making it in the NBA.
