Boston Celtics -6
I waited as long as I could because I knew the public would be backing Orlando, but it seems this line has settled at 6 after being at -7 earlier. This is a HUGE revenge spot for Boston at home on national TV, as it was Orlando who eliminated the C's on their home floor in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semi-finals last season. There was no Kevin Garnett for Boston back then, but KG is in the house and his presence makes that Boston defense one of the best in the league. Orlando's defense is down from last season's numbers and point guard Jameer Nelson is out as well. The Magic are coming off a same-season revenge win over Oklahoma City, and I don't expect them to be able to match Boston's intensity tonight. Lay it with Boston on ESPN.
