NBA Finals Preview? Betting Pick Hornets at Celtics
While many basketball analysts and handicappers like myself predicted immediate success for the Boston Celtics, (56-15 SU, 43-26-2 ATS, 32-38-1 O/U), this season after the acquired perennial all-stars Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett to go along wither resident fellow all-star Paul Pierce, not many people foresaw the highly successful season that the New Orleans Hornets, (49-21 SU, 44-25-1 ATS, 34-34-2 O/U), have unfurled on unsuspecting opponents all season long.
Boston improved on their league-leading best record in their last contest, beating the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday at home, 117-97 to cover a seven-point spread that I correctly predicted in the BetUS.com Locker Room, as Garnett and Pierce put up 30 and 27 points respectively.
