Boston won four in a row before resting its starters and losing to Washington on Thursday. Houston didn't bother to show up in a loss to Philadelphia on Friday in a game that went UNDER despite the 76ers scoring 134 points. The Celtics' game against the Wizards stayed UNDER by 39.5 points. Boston has played good defense in recent games holding opponents to an average of 105.5 points, which is excellent considering the high-scoring contests that The Bubble has featured. Boston has allowed 52.3 points in the first half this season compared to 53.7 for the 76ers.  Philly is 0-6 ATS its last six games after a win by at least 10 points and 7-15-1 versus teams with winning records. The Sixers are 5-12 ATS the last 17 meetings with Boston, and the Celtics are 12-3-1 ATS their last 16 conference quarterfinal games. Take the first half UNDER and the Celtics for the game.
