The Celtics have a situational advantage tonight, as not only did Miami go to overtime last night, but they also clinched a playoff spot in the process, making a letdown likely here.
The Celtics are hosting the Heat at the perfect time, as Miami is coming right back with no rest after a playoff-clinching overtime win at Cleveland last night.
While Boston has pretty much burned money at home this season, the Celtics have had success as underdogs when playing with same-season revenge, ringing the register at 20-10 against the spread in this situation.
With the Heat figuring to be both emotionally and physically drained tonight, loss for Boston to prevail.
The Celtics have been playing alot better than I thought they would be this late in the season. I do agree with your Boston selection in this game Mr.Lawrence.
