WUNDERDOG
Game: Orlando at Boston (1:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Boston -4 (-110)
Two of the top teams in the east clash in what should be a good game in Boston. The Celtics have taken care of Orlando twice already this season as they aren't intimidated by Dwight Howard. Boston is already assured of the playoffs but they remain a half game behind Cleveland for the top spot and the all-important home court advantage. This is a good matchup for Boston who has held Orlando under 100 points in four straight meetings, holding them to an average of just 88.8 points per game. Since the Big Three have been here, Boston is 80-59 ATS as a favorite including 20-9 ATS against teams at .700 or better. The Celtics have the better offense, the better defense, home court advantage and motivation, so laying four points here is not a problem.
