The only way I see the Celtics competing (not including referee tampering) in this game is if Rondo comes back. This is the first time I've laughed about match-ups in the NBA, thinking about Howard v. O'Neal and Nelson v. Bradley, I don't remember seeing two huge mismatches like that in one game.

Here's an angle worth considering if you can't stomach Celtics +5.5 but you want to follow BW:
Magic as a road favorite are allowing 93.4 ppg.
Celtics as a home dog are scoring 83.5 ppg.
The Celtics team total is 85 for this game. If Rondo is back I might elect to take Celtics team total over 85, it looked like a good play before but considering BW's record... I just can't see BW being close to right w/o the Celtics scoring more than 85.

You must have missed Texas saturday and Baltimore yesterday:
Ahh im worried about this, I can only get it at $4.5 but at $2 odds. if the games tight and orlandos up down the stretch these games always seem to blow out to 5 with the fouls.

Looks like Allen will play but unlikely for Rondo according to latest tweet from Celts beat writer...he hasn't formally said whether each player is in or out yet
