Desperate for a win, Boston travels to Dallas to face the red-hot Mavericks. Here are our Celtics-Mavericks NBA picks based on the top odds.
Boston was due for a let-down game Sunday at Denver, and the Celtics lost by 12 to a Nuggets team that's been phenomenal at home as of late. Searching for a bounce-back, the Celtics promptly got bounced Tuesday in Oklahoma City, surrendering a Thunder franchise record 150 points and losing by 33 to a team missing its best player. Yikes.
After seve n straight wins (three at home), momentum is on Dallas' side. The Mavs have won six of those seven games by nine points or fewer and eked out some close victories on the back of Luka Doncic, who has been superhuman over the last two weeks. Can Dallas extend its winning streak, or will Boston get back on track?
