Boston have the best record in the league and are fairing well following the loss of Hayward and THAT injury, *shudder. On an 8 game win streak the Celtics enter this one with some swagger, and rightly so against a Hawks team that just can’t get it done, with a 2-8 record (win-less at home).
Most impressive about the Celts has been their defense allowing just 93.2 ppg. The Celtics have also out-rebounded their opponent six straight times.
Atlanta did well taking down the Cavs last out, but will struggle tonight against the league’s in-form team.
Brooklyn @ Phoenix
H2H Trends –
- Over is 7-0 in the last 7 meetings in Phoenix.
- Brooklyn are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

| TEAM | W | L | HOME | ROAD |
| Brooklyn | 3 | 6 | 3-2 | 0-4 |
| Phoenix | 4 | 6 | 2-2 | 2-4 |

The Nets will try to get back on the winners list after losing four in a row.
Phoenix used a 24-8 run in the final 7 minutes to beat the Nets 122-114 in Brooklyn, the second stop of a five-game road trip and to be honest this one looks like a NO BET for the smart punters.
The total points is sky-high and the line is too skinny. Stay away.
Miami @ Golden State
H2H Trends –
- Miami are 4-0-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.
- Miami are 3-0-2 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Golden State.
Win/Loss
| TEAM | W | L | HOME | ROAD |
| Miami | 4 | 5 | 3-3 | 1-2 |

The Warriors start a 4 game home stand tonight against the Heat who are on a B2B and their third game on the road.
Last time these two met back in January Dion Waiters hit a buzzer beater that stole the hearts of the Warriors and the money from the punters all around the world.
