Fading the Celtics in the 1st Half

[Scruff Mcgruff]

This isn't going to be one of those "I waited until game has begun to announce my play" threads but I don't have the stats available or know where to find 1st half ATS statistics but Boston seems to play terrible in the 1st half of games consistently and then wake up in the 2nd. This is against bad teams and good teams alike. I think fading Boston in the 1st half is a good system and then hedging it by betting them in the 2nd. They are good at making comebacks as well to win SU.

Wondering if anyone else has noticed the same regarding the celts?

Correct, they're the worst 1H and (equal) second worst 1Q team also.

and then wake up in the 2nd.

I don't have this info though, sorry.

I like it too. I'm taking Sixers 1H. Sixers are a great 1H team, and that way I don't have too worry about one of those classic 14 point Philadelphia 4th quarters.

they are especially poor in 1st Q and 1st H when playing on the road in a b2b situation. It didn't matter if they were playing the Wizards, Raptors, or Hornets in these spots, the celtics didn't cover 1st H in either of them on a b2b road game.. I know because I won bets on all of them.

It's been automatic $$ all season. And if by chance they cover the half (they wont cover both), double up at halftime by betting against them for the 2nd half.

I was going to get on philly 1H anyway because it's been pretty consistent throughout the season. Didn't know Boston were that bad with first halves but now knowing that and seeing their tough game today i'm feeling even more confident about the bet.
