Boston still a title contender
The Boston Celtics have missed the playoffs just once in the previous ten seasons and shook up their roster by trading All-Star G Jaylen Brown in the offseason. The Celtics (9-2) have reeled off four consecutive victories and are sitting atop the Eastern Conference standings. Last night, Boston scored the first 14 points of the fourth quarter to run away with a 123-101 road triumph against Philadelphia.
Boston F Paul George connected on 6-for-11 from the three-point line and poured in a game-high 36 points. Jayson Tatum chipped in 21 points (8-17 FG), six rebounds, and four assists. Payton Pritchard added 18 points (4-8 3PT), six rebounds, and five assists in a reserve role for the Celtics.
Boston ranks fourth in the league in offensive efficiency and is scoring 115 points per game. During Tuesday’s victory, the Celtics knocked down 22-for-49 from long range and shot 51 percent overall. Boston forced 14 Philadelphia turnovers and converted them into 21 points. The Celtics led by as many as 29 points.

Toronto battling injuries
The Toronto Raptors have not won a playoff series since 2020 and are hoping the acquisition of Kawhi Leonard can return the franchise to postseason glory. The Raptors (5-5) have split their first four home games and are a half-game back of New York for fifth place in the Eastern Conference standings. On Monday, Toronto allowed Memphis to shoot 53 percent from the field during a 118-102 home loss.
Jamal Shead led five Toronto players in double figures with 20 points (4-10 3PT) and 11 assists. R.J. Barrett scored 19 points on an inefficient 7-for-21 shooting and finished with a minus 23 rating. Veteran C Jakob Poeltl and Jamison Battle scored 18 points apiece for the Raptors.
The Raptors rank 13th in the league in offensive efficiency and are scoring 116.6 points per contest. During Monday’s loss, Toronto assisted on 27 of 39 made field goals and shot 43 percent overall. The Raptors were outrebounded by a 44-34 margin and committed 14 turnovers which led to 26 Memphis points.
Boston Celtics vs Toronto Raptors Picks and Prediction
Pick: Boston Celtics -6.5
Toronto forwards Scottie Barnes (groin) and Kawhi Leonard (knee) will remain sidelined for this contest. The Celtics swept last season’s series against the Raptors by an average of 11.5 points. Normally I would look to fade Boston after playing a nationally televised game against rival Philadelphia. However, the Raptors are too banged up at the moment. Take the Celtics to win and cover on the road.
Pick: Under 216.5
These two division foes are in the middle of the pack when it comes to tempo. Boston ranks fifth in the league in defensive efficiency and allows 104.3 points per game. Toronto is 11th in defensive efficiency and gives up 113.3 points on average. The Celtics are the third most profitable under team with a 3-8 O/U mark. Take the under.
Final Score Prediction: Boston Celtics win 111-98
