Backing the Celtics always makes me nervous because they are like the Pacers or, I suppose, a box of chocolates: "Ya never know whatcha gonna get." While the C's are in the second of a back-to-back, they are very healthy. The Knicks are down Derrick Rose, Kemba Walker and Nerlens Noel. The Knicks are 0-7 against the spread in their last seven games as underdogs, but I'm taking a push/backdoor cover out with the ML.
The Celtics will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing two-point loss to the Spurs at home Wednesday. They are mostly healthy, with Payton Pritchard (COVID-19) the only somewhat notable name on their injury report. The Knicks are 4-10 ATS as underdogs this season, including 0-4 ATS as a home underdog. Look for the Celtics to come out motivated and continue the Knicks’ woes as underdogs.
