Point Spread: -3.50 | -110.00 Boston (Home)
Result: Loss
The Celtics have won two straight to get back to .500. They are tied for 6th in the East. This is the start of a 7-game homestand, so the team is probably feeling pretty good about itself right now. Boston blew a 24 pt lead and lost when they played in New Orleans last time.
The Pelicans are bad on the road.
The rebounding is way down, and they’re turning the ball over at a higher rate. Meanwhile, the surging Celtics could be entering this game with Evan Fournier on the floor. That would essentially give them four players capable of taking over a game on the scoring end. The Pelicans are in trouble.
I’m laying the points and taking Boston.
