After being dead on with my Houston -12 and my under 226 calls yesterday, I thought I would push my luck.

Toronto coming in off a tough fought OT win last night against the Pels.  No Derozan tonight.  Boston controlled this exact game a couple weeks back, when Derozan himself led a hard fought comeback in the 4th quarter to steal the win in Toronto. I think we take the chalk here and Boston easily wins in double digits.

What say you?

I would have to agree, the only thing that is sketchy to me is that Boston is in a leap frog position 0.5 games ahead of Toronto... but still, I like it.

Also, the only thing that scares me is that Lowry and Valanciunas are coming off monster nights and Normal Powell whom is replacing Derozan in the starting lineup is so good that he has toronto fateful questioning whether we should sell high on derozan.

But if the same Toronto Defence shows up tonight, Boston will cover easily.

Even with DeRozan, the Raptors just aren't playing good basketball right now.

All about momentum. While Raps have won this head to head matchup this season, they are in a slum with 6 loses in 7 games. Raps are playing 2nd game of a back to back here after facing the Pelicans at home last night.

Boston has won four straight and is playing at home tonight. They have been play well and this will carry with them over a tired and without DeRozn Raps squad.

Toronto

Raptors are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600

Raptors are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600

Raptors are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record


Boston

Celtics are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600

Celtics are 8-2-2 ATS in their last 12 games playing on 1 day of rest


Celtics to Cover ATS
