It's becoming a tradition like the NFL on Thanksgiving, except that the NBA is still scheduling good matchups, as opposed to the NFL giving the Lions a holiday game every year. Slight leans in a couple of games today, after taking the day off yesterday, but only going to play the side and total in the marquee matchup:
Lakers -2 -105, 1.05 units to win 1 unit
Public slightly favoring the Celts in this one, but a one-point line move toward the home team. Celtics not quite as dominant in their road games this year as they are at home. I'm not gonna have time to read the boards today, but I wonder if the prevailing square view is "the Lakers want it more" after losing in the finals, or that "the Celtics are better" because they won the finals and are on a 19-game winning streak. I would guess it's fairly evenly split.
Lakers/Celtics Under 200.5 -103, 1.03 units to win 1 unit
Mostly, just going against the most popular total on the board at wagerline (65% Over). In the big spotlight, both teams should be exerting effort on the defensive end this afternoon.
In hindsight, there may have been some reasons to go with Notre Dame last night (line move, the WAC was shit this year, etc.), but we were happy to take a day away from thinking about it for the first time in a long time. Enjoy the holdiay, folks.
