This should be a great game between the top two teams in the East. The Celtics are 26-4 at home, but one of those losses was to Detroit earlier this season. Both teams do it on defense. Boston holds foes here at home to 42.3 ppg and Detroit is not a high scoring team to begin with. Detroit is 74-54 UNDER in the first half on the road the past three seasons including 24-8 UNDER to a total of 90-95. Boston is 28-17 UNDER in the first half coming off a win this season. Yes, this total is low but these teams can deliver on it.
