The Celtics are a perfect 6-0 ATS this season as an away underdog of 3.0 or more. They have won 5 of the 6 games outright. Boston will definitely not be the side the general public will favor coming off a home loss and having lost all 6 on the road in this playoff season. You need to be reminded that this team was still the best road team in the NBA during the regular season. In addition as an underdog of this size there is an abundance of value. Any playoff home favorite with a win percentage of better than .575 who has won 42 games or less at home in the current season, is coming off a playoff away underdog SU win in which they scored 100 points or more, and is facing an opponent with a win percentage of .686 or better is 0-21 ATS since 1990. The underdog has won 17 of these 21 games outright. Play on the Boston Celtics plus the points as my NBA Playoff Game of the Year.
