Washington Wizards – Boston Celtics
Published on 10 December, 2009 | Leave a comment from S Georgiev
Tonight, despite the only 3 games in the NBA, one bet on this game seems very reasonable as Boston are red hot lately, something that cannot be said for the hosts.
Washington despite the good players in their roster, still cannot develop their potential, as from the start of the season are with a 7-12 record. One thing that is mainly due to the Antawn Jamison’s injury which took him out for the entire previous season, and for the first 9 games from this one. After his returning, the Wizards are with 5 wins out of 10 games, and he is averaging 20.1 points and 8.7 rebounds per game, but tonight against the Celtics, it will be very hard not only for him but for the whole team, as Kevin Garnett and co are one of the best defensive teams in the Association. Still more, the Wizards will miss Mike Miller who is injured till the late December, and in the last 10 games, Washington are 3-7 ATS.
Boston on the other hand, are in a very good shape with 8 straight wins, and 5-1 ATS in their last 6, while they have won their last 7 games with 7+ points. The team has recovered perfectly from the slump when they had won just 3 games out of 7 games, and at the moment the Celtics are on the 2nd place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 17-4 (just like Orlando, but Boston lost their game against the Magic). The team is playing so well and he will be one of the mainly candidates for the NBA Finals, and I expect from them to win such games like this one with ease. The only two missings for the Celtics will be Glen Davis and Marquis Daniels, but “the Big Baby” Davis has not played this season so far, while Marquis Daniels is averaging just 5.7 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists per game and his absence is not important. Also, Boston are the best away team so far, with just 1 lose in 10 away games.
But it will be good to reduce the spread a little, as in the last 7 games, the Celtics have 2 wins with exactly 7 point margin.
Pick: Boston Celtics (-6.5) at the odds of 1.76 at bet365.
Good Luck.
