Game Prediction, Analysis and Breakdown
BOSTON CELTICS VS. BROOKLYN NETS
Tommy d, online sports bet, back with your second Saturday video on opening day of the first round of the 2021 nba playoffs.
The heat and bucks were a nice afternoon snack, but the entree is being served at 8 pm eastern time on abc. For those watching on the go; There should be plenty of available celtics nets live streams and viewing options for this game on mobile.
Game Prediction, Analysis and Breakdown
The current Celtics vs nets odds have Brooklyn favored by 8.5 points and the total at 228.5.
Looking at the Celtics vs nets stats and trends, we can see a picture get painted.
Boston is 1-5 straight up and against the spread in their last 6 against the Nets and 0-6 In Their last 6 meetings playing at the Barclays center.
They have covered their last 3 games played though, so maybe they have turned the tide for the playoffs
Brooklyn has won and covered their last 5 games to end the regular season themselves, and come into the playoffs as one of the hotter teams since getting back to full strength with james harden and Kevin Durant. They would have likely beaten out the sixers for the 1 seed if they had been healthier down the stretch.
They are now though. The Nets vs Celtics injury report shows Brooklyn as the healthier team. The Celtics will obviously be without jaylen brown, which is why they played poorly to finish out the regular season.
Normally Boston would have the deeper bench of the two teams on the court, but the nets are a super power. Stacked from top to bottom, so the second unit for Boston will not have the same advantage they usually would in tonight’s game.
The only area Boston has an advantage tonight, is in the offensive rebounding category. They position themselves well and should see more second chance opportunities than the nets. They’ll need it, because the nets are the second best shooting team in the nba by %.
I expect the Celtics to have more trouble running the score up to match the nets unless Kemba Walker can get hot from downtown.
The total has gone under in 4 of the last 5 celtics games and also 4 of their last 5 road games.
Other trends supporting the under…
The under has hit In 8 of the last 10 nets games against eastern conference opponents and 6 of their last 9 games overall.
My Celtics vs nets fantasy player picks are…Kevin Durant or harden if you can afford them…and certainly jayson Tatum on the Celtics, who should account for over 1/3 of the total shot attempts taken by Boston.
Now here’s the payoff you’ve all been waiting for..
My Celtics vs nets expert pick and best bet is…
under 228.5
My official Celtics vs nets prediction Is nets win this game but I dont Feel comfortable laying the 8.5 points so going with the under as the best option.
Thanks for watching and I’ll see you back same time tomorrow!
