The New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics have been a strong geographic rivalry for decades, but both teams have become shy of talent to take a bit of luster off the rivalry. The Knicks have been playing as good as they have all season with four straight wins. As much as the Garden seems to carry a strong home-court advantage for Boston, it has been anything but as a home dog. The Celtics are 13-37 ATS as a home dog of +1.5 to +8.5 on two days or less rest if they are under .524, and playing a hot team that has won three or more games. The Knicks have the mojo, and the Garden has not been friendly to the Celtics in this case. Play on New York.
