These division rivals were two of the most efficient defenses in the NBA last season, and I expect Toronto's defense to be even better this year thanks to the addition of Kawhi Leonard. Plus, with these two looking like two of the better teams in the East this season, there should be plenty of intensity for a nationally televised game.

The Celtics enter the season finally healthy and as the favorites to come out of the Eastern Conference. They looked every bit of a dominant team in their opener, beating a very good Sixers team by 18 points. The Raptors may have improved by trading DeMar DeRozan for Kawhi Leonard, but the Celtics have far more talent and depth overall. I’ll take the Celtics and the points.
