-Miami received the Cash Line 7 out of their final 10 video games.
-Boston received the Cash Line 6 of their final 10 video games.
Boston is an excellent staff at residence, and they’re coming off a blowout win towards the 76ers. If Tatum is on his recreation, I believe the Celtics will win. The Bench rotation is all depending on Head Coach Joe Mazzulla. Ball key will probably be motion to get everybody concerned. Give me Celtics Cash Line.
