NBA Picks
The Nets and Celtics have played better of late so this has the potential to be a very good matchup on Wednesday night. The key in this game could be whether or not the Celtics have their full contingent of players. This has all the looks of a game that will be tight and that means points are worth taking. The Nets are still very much a public team and it would not be a surprise to see Brooklyn favored on the road. The Celtics have played much better at home of late and I think they are the right side in this contest, but only if the line is a pick or they are listed as a home underdog. If Boston ends up as a home favorite, I will pass on this contest.
