The OVER/UNDER for this NBA Picks: Toronto Raptors vs. Boston Celtics, has been set at a combined total of 183 points.
Last season, the Celtics captured an all-time NBA best 17th championship, as defense was their staple all through the regular season (90.3 ppg) and into the playoffs (88.8 ppg). Seven games into the 2008-09 season, the Celtics are allowing just 86.7 ppg and a field-goal percentage defense (.375) that's by far, the best in the league.
In addition, the C’s also possess the best trio in the Eastern Conference with Kevin Garnett (14.6 ppg, 10 rpg, 1.4 apg), Paul Pierce (16.3 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 4 apg) and Ray Allen (14 ppg, 5 rpg, 2.5 apg). Last night, the Celtics put on another dominating performance against conference rivals, Detroit Pistons. Even with their latest acquisition, Allen Iverson, on the floor, Boston limited Detroit to just 34.7% shooting, as a 30-10 second quarter run put the game out of reach. When it was all said and done Boston prevailed by a final score of 88-76. "(The defense was) the best of the year, by far," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said.
Tonight, Boston’s defense will need to be just as good or better, as they host the new twin towers of the East, Chris Bosh (26 ppg, 10.2 rpg, 2.4 apg) and Jermaine O’Neal (10.5 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 2.2 apg). "My teammates do a great job of finding the open guy," Bosh said. "That's what we're taught to do, and that's where we make our bread and butter. If we see a guy open, we have to get it to him."
