    The Celtics will beat Houston tonight. Get on it.

    ok guys, Celtics are rested fine and have Delonte West and Glen Davis
    back. they looked pretty good in the last outing, beating Indiana by 12.
    The bench is coming around. Troy Murphy, Jeff Green, Carlos Arroyo
    all becoming more adept in the system. I am particularly impressed with
    Arroyo as a backup PG. It's a nice switch especially because it allows
    West to be a more comfortable shooter and defender while Arroyo is
    setting up Baby on the inside, Green, West.
    Shaq is travelling with the team on this 3-game road set. He probably will
    not play until it ends in New York, but just having the big guy with the team
    will be a positive motivator for the starting unit.
    Rockets beat Boston at Boston on January 11 by 108-102, but
    Kevin Garnett did not play that game. I don't have to tell anyone how
    much Garnett's defensive leadership matters to Boston. They were very
    lethargic in that game, did not appear hungry at all. Along with this,
    the other reasons that Houston edged the Garnett-less Celtics were
    Shane Battier's defense and Aaron Brooks's offense ( 24 points ).
    Neither are on the roster anymore.
    Pierce was held to 5-12 shooting behind Battier's stellar defense, but he will be guarded by Chase Budinger tonight, which is a total mismatch.


    We've got the playoffs coming so guys are really buckling down," forward Paul Pierce said. "We just want to finish off the season on a good note. So this is a very important trip for us to try to get all of these wins." - Paul Pierce

    yeah, not only going for home court in East but also
    to maintain record vs any West challengers for home court in the finals.
    only the Spurs have a better record than Boston in the West,
    and they are not uncatchable.

    Effort helps a lot, but it's also for the other reasons mentioned
    that I feel confidence in them tonight.

    This game will be close. Houston really needs this win and Boston isn't particularly great on the road. Plus its Friday.

    Boston has been losing some close games lately. This game should be tight the whole way but I expect the Celtics to come up with the plays. They haven't closed a game in a while.

    I hope so, I put a bet on them after a 1Q loss from betting on the Bulls. I need to quit doing 1Q bets, I have horrible luck with those.

    the line may be low because of bostons recent road struggles on top of losing to them at home earlier this season but theyll most likely win tonight
