Orlando at Boston

Boston will have plenty of rest heading into Game 1 of the first round, and the Celtics won't take the Magic lightly and will have a bit of revenge on their minds after losing 96-76 to them on April 9 when the Celtics rested their starters. Orlando is 0-3-1 ATS in its past four playoff games as an underdog of at least 11 points and 1-6-1 ATS in the playoffs as a dog overall. Boston has won 14 of its past 16 games, and it has gone UNDER four of six. Six of the past eight meetings have gone UNDER, and Boston has stayed UNDER 14 of 18 against the Southeast Division. The Celtics allow 52.5 points in the first half, and Orlando scores 53.9. The defensive intensity will be greater in the postseason. In their final regular-season game, the Celtics played all their reserves and still held Charlotte to only 43 points before the half. Take the Celtics and the first half UNDER.
