The Boston Celtics have never done well at home vs poor teams, especially since they have a cast of aging stars that pick their spots. The Celtics, when they have been off a win and playing as a home favorite of 7-15.5 points against a bad team that wins less than 30% of their games, are a woeful 2-18 ATS. The Nets are an improved team and when they get a bunch of points, 11 or more, and are off at least a pair of losses, they have responded by going 11-2 ATS. I'll go with New Jersey in this one.
