The top 2 teams in the East are also the 2 teams in the division which are averaging over 100 ppg. Boston went thru a 4 game losing streak 1/6 - 1/12 and started to press the tempo scoring 113 ppg their last 5 despite only topping 44.4% FG shooting once (did not shoot lights out).

It also helps that the Celtics D has allowed 100+ points in 6 of their last 7 games. Boston is on a 3rd straight road game so expect the Raptors to push the pace even more and in the other Boston 3rd straight away game this year they totaled 234 points. Toronto has also raised its scoring average of late topping 100+ 6 of the last 8 games with the the two non-100 pt games on the road. TAKE THE OVER!
