NBA Sports Betting – Streaking Celtics Host Struggling Warriors
The Boston Celtics (13-2 SU, 8-7 ATS, 6-9 O/U) are looking good BetUS NBA sports betting fanatics!
Not only have the C’s won five consecutive games to push their Eastern Conference-leading mark to an impressive 13-2, but more importantly for Celtics backers, have covered the spread in four straight games in the BetUS Sportsbook. The Celtics will host a Golden State Warriors (5-8 SU, 6-7 ATS, 9-4 O/U) team that has dropped two straight games while failing to cover the spread each time.
The Warriors suffered their worst loss of the season on Tuesday, losing to the Washington Wizards 124-100,
Corey Maggette scored 17 points and Stephen Jackson added 16 for the Warriors, who allowed the Wizards to shoot above 50 percent and score 26 points off 20 turnovers.
Boston pounded the Toronto Raptors on Sunday winning 118-103 as a 4.5-point road favorite. Shooting guard Ray Allen scored 21 points to lead a whopping seven players that reached double figures in scoring.
Young point guard Rajon Rondo has blossomed for the Celtics recently, averaging 15.3 points and on 54.3 percent shooting during the last four games.
“I thought his speed was the factor of the game,” Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said of Rondo. “It set the tables for everyone else to get in. He’s done that three or four games in a row and we’re winning by big margins and I really believe that’s the reason.”
