even when the Celtics lose tonight against TOR?

Speedy88 · 04-14-12, 03:07 AM

middle game of the b2b2b. teams have really struggled with the middle game.

Leaning NJ, line is already down to 6

I took Boston. They can't afford to lose another winnable game like they did as their trying to improve in the conference with the games left numbered.

Sure they need to win, but do they cover the -7? Winning is one thing, but winning by 7 on the road is completely different.

Personally I don't think Humphries and Williams will be able to keep up with Allen, Garnett, and Rondo on points, and struggle against the likes of Stiemsma who's been playing great D in the paint. I don't think Bostons gonna want to keep it close but rather start off strong and fast to try and gain a nice lead early. I think Boston 1Q (assuming 3 points) might be a great bet and will probably hedge with that just in case they dont cover, though I believe they will. We're getting down to the wire here where the lure of playoff contention and factors will outweigh reg. game trends. There's only like 7 games left, they can't afford to slacken up and I think Craptor loss will be an eye opener.

Also love NJN in this spot

Inkwell77 · 04-14-12, 10:25 AM

Like New Jersey here although they are tough to bet on.

Also like Golden State and Memphis.

- Boston is 2-8-1 vs spread on road if it played night before.

It sucks that Celtics lost to Raptors - I'm sure Doc Rivers and the Celtics are not going to want to go 0-2 on this road trip against two shitty teams. I can see Celtics coming in focused here to play this game, and if they do, they will be able to cover the spread.

Asking the Celts to win by 8 or more in the middle of a b2b2b is asking a lot.

I got them at -5 1/2 which I think they can cover

BernardMadoff · 04-14-12, 06:04 PM

Took Celts ML, if it loses, it loses.

RHB041000 · 04-14-12, 06:40 PM

Bost -4 1h

Pivotpoint · 04-14-12, 06:41 PM

Celtics - 6 1/2 for me. Nets suck. Celtics need to rebound from loss and get to relax on Sunday against toothless kitty cats.

brainfreeze0 · 04-14-12, 07:04 PM

Celtics trying to build a new home with all these bricks

Sport_Fish · 04-14-12, 07:07 PM

Rondo vs Williams, mismatch of the year.

Jutzu · 04-14-12, 07:21 PM

Nets win

HoulihansTX · 04-15-12, 12:05 AM

Of course they meltdown 2ndH.

bureK · 04-15-12, 07:44 AM

3rd QT only and it was enough to fukk up the bet
