Friday’s schedule is loaded with 13 games, and the league’s two remaining unbeaten clubs will both be in action. Boston is off to a fast start at 6-0 and will be hosting Phoenix, who shares the lead in the Pacific Division at 4-1 after a week-and-a-half. The Celtics have had their way with the Suns of late, having won three straight head-to-head matchups by at least 17 points each time. According to Statfox, PHOENIX is 14-27 ATS (-15.7 Units) when playing against a team with a winning record over the last 2 seasons. The average score was PHOENIX 106.1, OPPONENT 110.5. Although this doesn't take into account that Shaq is no longer on the Suns, taking Celtics here at -10.5 seems like the right play.

Reasons to take Suns +10.5:
1) High scoring road team....keep game close if they play well
2) losing by single digits seems more likely than being blown out
3) Celtics didnt cover vs. hornets who are a lower ranked team offensively so suns should cover

Reasons to take Celitcs -10.5:
1) Celtics blow them out like they have every other time they have played the suns in boston
2) Celtics are undefeated and continue to be undeafeated with a crushing win heading into a weekend where they could end up being 8-0.


Final Score: Celtics -10.5

Williams22,
At least Brakon00 gave it a shot. You think his analysis is horrible. I'm not to sure your one sentence about his write up is all that great either. How about you give him some pointers so he can try to do a better job. Instead of talking smack.................

Brakon00, best of luck tonight.
