Match Predict – Handicap (-3.5) for Warriors
The Boston Celtics showed character and a desire to win. Ime Udoka’s men felt they could do better than they expected, so game one was on them. Of course, credit should go to the Celtics’ leaders, but it looked as though it would be very difficult to do the same in the next meeting.
For the Golden State Warriors, the loss in the last meeting was a real cold shower. There’s no doubt that Steve Kerr has sorted out the mistakes and his guys have learned their lesson. In our opinion, the Warriors will not fall into the same trap a second time but will force their opponent to make mistakes.
Total Points – Over 214.5
We expect the Warriors to do all they can to level the series. The team knows how to attack, but the Celtics have shown they should never be underestimated. In short, we’ll be looking forward to another productive encounter.
Away Side Points – Over 104.5
In all their last five head-to-head games, the Celtics have scored more than 104.5 points.
