Top Cappers News
Boston dominated New York throughout the regular season, winning three of four matchups by double digits before edging the Knicks 119-117 in an overtime battle on April 8. While the Knicks squeezed past a feisty Detroit team in the first round, they now face a far more daunting challenge. The Celtics have consistently been a thorn in New York’s side, exploiting matchup advantages all season long. Even though Boston enters Game 1 after a long layoff which sometimes leads to early rust their overwhelming depth, firepower, and defensive edge make them tough to bet against, especially at home.
The Knicks may hang around early, but Boston’s ability to wear down opponents with two-way efficiency will likely prove too much. This Celtics squad is healthy, motivated, and eager to set the tone. The spread might look steep on paper, but considering the matchup history and Boston’s playoff pedigree, backing the home team to win and cover looks like the sharp play here. Take Boston ATS
