The Celtics have been awful at home all year, so look for the suddenly potent Charlotte offense to take advantage here and possibly pull the outright upset.
Charlotte is coming off a huge win at home last night against the Cavaliers, and I look for them to bring that confidence into this game at Boston tonight.
For whatever reason, the Celtics have been one of the best investments in the league on the road this year, but they have been terrible here at home! Boston is just 9-22 against the spread in this building, and their porous defense now must contend with a Bobcat offense that is averaging 104.2 points per game over the last 5 games.
I just do not see the Celts matching that firepower, and I would not be shocked if the Bobcats post there first straight up victory at Boston in the brief history of the franchise after five losses here, so grab the points.
Play: Charlotte +6½
