Boston Celtics vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction

The Celtics don’t have a heavy injury report for the first time in weeks, and they, of course, could blow the doors off the Spurs. There’s a serious talent gap between teams, given the Spurs are down their two best players. However, we know the deal by now. The Celtics don’t cover massive numbers, and that includes being 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games as a double-digit favorite. The Celtics are 34-38-1 ATS on the season overall. There’s not much reason to seriously back the Spurs, but you’re up big if you blindly fade the Celtics in these massive favorite spots, so that’s where I’m going here.
