The Boston Celtics will be playing on short rest, but they haven't had to travel far following their 116-107 win at Houston last night.

The Dallas Mavericks have had a lot more time to rest and prepare, as they've been off since a 127-110 loss to the Lakers in LA on January 17.

I still think the Celtics have this, as the rest advantage is not enough to make up for the talent gap, in my opinion.
