Default Boston Celtics 70+ wins???

The Celtics currently sit at 27-3

Looking at their remaining schedule below do you think think they can surpass 70 wins?

All I know is the futures bet at the beginning of the season was something like Boston O/U 34 or 35 wins... might even have been 32.... I loved it but forgot to put it in

Damnit.........

No it wasn't. Everyone would have taken out a loan if the total was set that low. If I remember correctly, it was 46 or 46.5 most places.

Celts have no chance of winning 70.

I looked at it at Bodog and I KNOW it was in the 30's

I only use Blowdog for futures

You shouldn't use Bodog for ANYTHING, but that's another story.

Everyone knows Bodog's a square book, but they're not going to set a futures total 10+ wins below other books. Are you sure this number wasn't from before the Celtics acquired Garnett?

Pretty sure it was about 4 days before the season started... because I looked at it, left for 10 minutes, looked at it again and was like huh?

Then I realized I didnt have much money on Blowdog so didnt want to have it all tied up for the entire season, then decided it was alright but forgot to bet it

Oh well

I don't play at Bodog so I can't say for sure, but if they did have the number set in the mid-30s it had to be a bad line.

i don't think so. they have played great and been fortunate to not have any significant injuries. Pierce and Allen haven't played a full year in the last couple and probably one or both will miss some time before the year is over.
