The set-up: The Celtics look to get back on track after a tough 115-107 loss in Denver on Monday. The Suns enter motivated as well after they were humbled 104-82 at home by the lowly Nets. When these teams played in Phoenix last March 26th, it was the C's that came out on top 102-94. I'm expecting a similar final combined outcome here as well.

The pick: Boston is averaging only 104.2 PPG, but it's No. 1 defensively in allowing only 101.3. That's bad news for a Phoenix team averaging only 100.6 PPG. Note that Boston has already seen the total go "under" in both games it's played vs. teams with losing records this year, while Phoenix has seen the total go "under" in four of six at home to this point. I'm going to highly recommend a second look at the under in this one.
