Brooklyn Nets vs Boston Celtics prediction

The Nets and Celtics just played each other yesterday and usually the second game is more competitive as there are no surprises from either team. The Nets put up a fight in last night’s loss, and 6 of the last 10 meetings against the Celtics have been decided by 10 or fewer points. The Boston Celtics have the ability to blow the doors off here, but they’re also 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games. The Celtics keep getting these massive numbers and they’re not covering them. Give me the Nets and the points once again.
