I'm playing on Boston/Portland UNDER the total. The Celtics are off a high-scoring game at Utah, last night. I'm expecting a much lower-scoring affair this evening. Prior to last night's high-scoring game, the Celtics had been involved in three straight low-scoring games. They only scored 88 in two of those. This will be the fourth time, over the past month, that the Celtics will have played the second of b2b games. The first three of those had scores of 173, 179 and 216. The Blazers scored only 83 points, in getting upset by the Spurs last game. The UNDER is 4-1 the past five times that they were off a SU loss as a favorite. Of course, it should also be mentioned that the Blazers will be without Lillard. Look for the UNDER to improve to 6-2 the past eight times that they were off a double-digit loss.
