Wow the Celtics look good. They are now 3-0 after crushing the Nuggets in Denver on Wednesday. In that game they shot 64.5% from the field - for the game! What's gone a bit unnoticed in the hype about Boston is that they are playin great defense! They held their first two opponents to 35% and 36.7% shooting. Then they held a high-scoring Denver team to just 93. Atlanta is only scoring 86.5 per game on the road thus far so look for them to really have a hard time in this one. The Hawks are 31-11 UNDER in the first half as a road underdog since last season.
