The Boston Celtics will meet with the Lakers in the Staples Center tonight at 10 EST. Boston is coming off an upset win over the Blazers as 1.5 point underdogs which puts them in a (64%) system of road teams off an upset win in December (87-49 ATS) L5 seasons. The Lakers have been a horrible cover team at home going (4-11 ATS) this season and are (5-17 ATS) vs Atlantic division opponents since LeBron joined the Lakers. The last time these teams met the Celtics won 130-108 back on November 19th as 1 point home dogs. J. Brown is questionable tonight with his hamstring issue but even if he does not play I still like the Celtics tonight. Take Boston + the points on the road.

Pick: BOS CELTICS +2.5
