The Boston Celtics won a game on the road, behind a monster 38 point third quarter. Now they must win another game, but this one is in Boston. As mentioned in this column previously, both of these teams are unpredictable and have not been consistent. Jaylen Brown only has one game with more than 17 points, and he’s due a big game which could propel the Celtics to a must win in TD Garden.

The spread is at 8.5 points in favor of the Boston Celtics. However, Miami has won both games at TD Garden, and the Celtics had a higher spread in game one. The moneyline only has value for the Heat (+255), the spread seems unpredictable, and the 215.5 total line is based off of the 116-99 finish of game four. Computer projection models and sportsbooks adjusters have had four games to evaluate scheme and probability of this series. The lines seem to reflect this as well as most of the lines seem tight or inflated. Bet with caution, like several straight bets a push is not an option.

BETS OF THE NIGHT:
Caleb Martin to score more than Derrick White (-115). This particular bet was found on Draftkings under the player vs player, points option. The selection is listed as the ‘moneyline’. He has been absolutely on fire this series, recording totals of 15, 25, 18, 16. Compared to White’s 11, 11, 9, 16.
Jimmy Butler OVER 5.5 Assist (-140). Butler only managed five assist in the game four, but has covered this line in the other three games of the series. Miami passed the ball less in the third quarter, and their point total reflected it. It was likely an emphasis in the film review and practice. Butler touches the ball on most second half possessions, look for this line to be covered.

GOLDEN TRIANGLE – DFS
CENTER – Cody Zeller ($1,600). Zeller is simply too good of a bargain to let go. He is averaging 10.9 fantasy points per game, and Bam has been in foul trouble the past two games. Get this bargain to build your lineup.
FORWARD – Jayson Tatum ($13,200). Tatum is the hub of everything that makes the Celtics succesful. He is averaging a double-double and scored 30+ points in all but one game of this series. He is a must have.
GUARD – Caleb Martin ($6,500). Martin is having an outstanding series. He has been a scoring machine, has 3+ rebounds in every game, and his lowest fantasy scoring output is 24.5. He should keep his confidence and momentum rolling.
