Which Celtics team will we see on Friday night? The one that allowed James Harden to go off for 45 points in Game 1 where they fell, 119-115, as 10 ½ point home chalk, or the one that limited him to 12 points on 2-of-14 shooting and blew Philly out, 121-87?
Well, here’s a little tip, since James Harden severely injured his hamstring when with the Nets a few years ago, he has averaged 20 points per game on one day’s rest but when he has three days or more to sit his average spikes to over 24 points per game.
Harden will be on one day’s rest on Friday night and I believe the Green Team will smash the Sixers as they have done so often in recent memory, covering six of their last seven meetings.
