Warriors at Celtics picks and predictions
Prediction
Celtics 118, Warriors 110
Money line
PASS.
The Celtics are on fire, but they’re certainly not worth any bet at -520. Don’t keep taking Golden State to end Boston’s winning streak on Sunday as well.
Against the spread
WARRIORS BET +10.5 (-108).
The Warriors have played very well on the road lately. Since February 5, the Warriors have lost 2 games, both at home. They are 8-0 and 1 ATS on the road. Golden State is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games as an underdog.
The Celtics have also been red hot lately, but they are just 5-3-1 ATS in their last 9 games. Both teams are thriving, but only one is a double-digit underdog.
Back WARRIORS +10.5 (-108).
More less
LEAN LESS THAN 230.5 (-110).
The Celtics have gone under in 3 of their last 5 games and in 5 of their last 9 games. They have allowed less than 100 points in 2 of their last 5 games and have several solid defensive players on their roster.
The Warriors have also allowed under 100 in 2 of their last 5 games and have gone under 6 times in a row. Golden State has scored 110 or less in 3 of its last 5.
Given the trends, let’s take UNDER 230.5 (-110).
