The Celtics are the best team in the NBA and have the 4th best start of any team in league history...

The Celtics are my pick tonight....
However I don't like them as much as I like Houston at -9 tonight

"Looks too easy"
Don't even say that to yourself.
Then you start playing mind games.
You like a number - bet it. Don't second guess yourself.

Like Detroit a lot, JJ. They are better than Boston and very tough at home. I actually capped this at Detroit -6.

Detroit will shut down the Celtics big 3 and turn this lull of a game into a snoozefest that they will dominate. Look for Tayshaun to be in the groove and dominate the boards. This line should be at -6 so this line is a gift. Allen is tired already and Garnett has never played well against that D' in Detroit. This is a easy win tonight JJ, your on the right side. No worries.

Boston lacks the steel resolve of the Pistons (and Spurs). You can't have softness or sweetness and be a NBA champ these days. Boston will turn into the Suns of the East. Plenty of big blowout wins, but no rings. They call 'm the Big Three, but how much playoff experience do Garnett, Allen, and Pierce bring to the table? Compared to the Pistons... If Detroit plays with playoff determination tonight Boston doesn't have much of a chance.

Slim and none is what playoff experience the "Big Three" have. Garnett while talented is overrated and Allen is a streaky player. Pierce is a solid player and does what is needed to win. Can't say that about hs cohorts. Look how deep the benches are and that will be the short tail of the tape tonight.

Detroit best team in NBA
JJ remember you said that your home made line on Lakers-Celts last week was Lakers -6. I think Celts prove you wrong again and win out right

JJ your a better man than I if you can bet NBA early regular season games. I was convinced Pro Tennis and the NBA was rigged before all the allegations of last year.

i think its funny how you guys say this and that. if you watch basketball, you know allen pierce and garnett can str8 ball it up. doesnt matter who they are playing against they will get theirs. I have never seen a team shut down any of these guys in a game. bottom line is both these teams are cash cows right now. we should ride them out till they hit losing streaks. this game could of went either way. no one is predicting anything in a game like this. just flip a coin that is your best bet. i just took boston cause of the points.

I remember reading the postgame articles after the first time they played.
Boston was devastated they loist. I remember thingking "wow, this is a team that doesnt take losses lightly"
I thought they would come out strong and I knew that Memphis game the night before had 'trap' written all over it.
Celtics team is for real...it was a good win
