I think the books are going to overvalue the loss of Rondo and might be a great opportunity to jump on the Celts with potentially a high number of points. I'm not saying Rondo wasn't a factor, because he is definitely a great player, I just think the Celtics will be just as productive without him. The stats show the Celtics are actually better without him in terms of efficiency, but we'll see what happens.

Similar thinking to the pro gambler whose largest bets are on the knicks when Melo is out because he is greatly overvalued. Probably true, but they are the Celtics, so there lines are slightly inflated anyhow.

The line moved form +3.5 to +5 when Rondo was ruled out yesterday. Don't think there will be that major of an adjustment for Boston lines.

That's possibly cause they couldn't open up too much of an opportunity for a middle. But yes, may be small, we shall see.

I think that's EXACTLY why it was a small change.

Good point.
