Celtics vs Jazz Prediction

The Celtics have all of a sudden won and covered four straight games and are looking more and more like the team we saw last year. The Jazz are in full-on tank mode and appear to have shut down anybody with a pulse in hopes of a better draft pick. The Celtics have the ability to win this game by 30-plus points. However, this is the ultimate trap game, as it’s sandwiched between a Lakers win and a game against the Thunder.

Also, while the Jazz aren’t winning games and don’t play many recognizable faces, they’re still a profitable 34-30 ATS on the year. I’ll take my chances with the Jazz and the points, as I just can’t bring myself to lay this many points in an NBA game.
