Boston played last night and were beaten soundly by Philadelphia, but, they only allowed 106 points. Tonight, Kemba Walker is resting, so there goes their second leading scorer, and on B2B games it's the tired legs that often lead to tired jump shots. The Knicks only average 105 PPG, but perhaps more importantly and aside from "only" allowing Brooklyn 114 the other night, haven't given up more than 102 in their previous six games. Those games were against higher octane and higher scoring offenses, too. The Celtics have played to six straight unders, and in my opinion the bools haven't adjusted enough yet. The Knicks have the #1 PPG scoring defense and are near the bottom in fast break points. Bottom line is that this one looks to be yet another winner.
