Advice and prediction
A whopping 77% are taking the Celtics on their tickets for this contest according to the Action Network, and we’d have to agree. Boston is the better team in terms of talent, but talent doesn’t win games without discipline — and that may well be an achilles heel of this young team. With the memory of a narrow loss so fresh in their minds, we’re expecting a much better effort from the Celtics and a convincing win with it.
Prediction: 117 Boston, 101 Indiana.
