Brad Stevens is winning the coaching battle, and Boston -- though fortunate to cover in Game 1 -- is in control. Yes, Boston will face a desperate home team Friday night, but I like taking the points with a Celtics side that's 16-6 ATS in its last 22 overall and has covered six straight first-round playoff games.
The Celtics overwhelmed the Bucks in Game 2, and while a change of scenery can only help Milwaukee, it's hard to envision Boston losing by more than a possession or two. I'll take the underdog Celtics and the points.
