Premium Pick

It's quick revenge for Boston, which lost at home 100-97 to Brooklyn on Saturday. The Celtics shot just 38.6 percent from the field and only 7-of-32 from beyond the arc. Isaiah Thomas was the only bright spot in scoring 24 points as the Celtics lost as a 9.5 point favorite. Brooklyn got 30 points from Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson added 20 points for the Nets, who also had a bad shooting night, including making just 3-of-18 from three-point range. The Celtics are trying to break a two-game losing streak which includes a 112-104 loss to the lowly Lakers on Tuesday, so they will be focused for this matchup. Boston is 4-1-1 over its last six games when playing on one day of rest and 20-8 ATS its last 28 road games dating to last season. Brooklyn is 1-4 ATS in its last five home games. Look for the Celtics to avenge Saturday's loss with the win and cover. Take the Celtics.
