Celtics -5 Monday, too easy?

Question

The visiting Celtics attempt to stay alone atop the Eastern Conference by sweeping the season series from the Nets, who are expected to have Deron Williams back on the floor Monday night.

Is this why the line is -5, this guy williams will change the complexion of the game for NJN and celts will stumble? or the nets will lose by a couple points? Celts will be tired from the long 3 hr travel to NJ for the game perhaps? Just wondering what im missing. Im turning to you all here as I won the GS straight up and UNDER last night, as well as Minn team total under 106.5. Lost the knicks which most people were on as well, but one stumble I can live with.

So help with this game? lets work together to figure this out and win again? thanks

For me its Boston or no play .. But how can u pass up 5 points vs the NETS??

kinglebronownzu · Answer

well i know they should win by 10&#x2B; , line is up to 5.5 nowIm thinking parlay that with the UNDER 188If the celts score 110, nets score 80, doomedBut I think the celts should win in the range of 98-100 to 80-85

I very rarely bet on the Celtics spread because they always seem to win the game but lose the cover. I really think this time they will cover.......they are getting healthy again and they know what time it is. Time to GET IT!!!!!!!!!!

To Easy.......Never.........like that with - points......

I do like Boston and I hope they cover. Best of Luck to you!!!!!

I took the -5 when my book first offered it. I think the Celtics will far surpass that number.

Boston is 3-10 ATS on 0 days rest.New Jersey is 10-4 ATS vs above .500 teams at home, Boston 9-10 ATS vs sub .500 teams away.Boston 7-11 ATS as Favorites -1 to -5.5New Jersey 14-11 ATS as Dogs 1 to 5.5Boston- 4-6 ATS since All Star breakNew Jersey- 5-2 ATS since All Star breakDeron Williams returning. OVER 80% consensus for Boston on covers match up screen. I don&#x27;t know if New Jersey is a winner, but I can pretty much guarantee you Boston is not better then 50% in this spot, especially not if that line hits &#x2B;6. At &#x2B;6 (-110 or better) I&#x27;m playing on New Jersey.

Interesting numbers. I like Boston in this one. Not sure if I&#x27;ll make a play on it though. They do not seem to be that great on back to backs.

BOS plays great St patty week , they will cover

senbet · Answer

Deron first game back since his baby being born so you know he's feeling good.

Also Doc watches the Celtics minutes real closely. Keeping everybody close to just 30 minutes.

I think that cost them the Philly game.

I like Boston though because they had an easy game yesterday.

Even with that 3-10 ats back to back stat

RonsterG · Answer

Take Boston 1st and 2nd quarter.......no way Nets outscore them in both and u have a high percentage of winning both with the Celtics defense

I wonder, if it would be easy taking the Nets UNDER team total, which sounds easy like last night, when I took the Twolves UNDER 106.5 team total
