Boston Celtics at Los Angeles Lakers - Free NBA Betting Tips
Simply put, this is the biggest rivalry in basketball, a long and storied history between the two teams started in the 1960s where the Lakers made it to six Championship Finals, and lost every single one, to the Celtics.
The Lakers have struggled against top 4 sides from either coast at home this season, losing twice to the Cavs, and once to the Grizzlies, Thunder and Rockets. We can't see a win for the Lakers here, so we won't be value betting, we are going to snap up Boston -5.5 before it goes up a point, and also an Over bet at 220.5, again before that rises.
Well, looks like we can finally make the decision, that tipping the Celtics is dangerous and never to be repeated, they are just far too inconsistent this season, so perhaps now we'll start looking to value bet against them.
A poor result in terms of tipping, the game was an Under, largely thanks to a lacklustre performance from Boston (cheers lads), and of course the Lakers won so our bet on Boston to cover the spread was a loser (cheers lads). We did get a nice Player prop win on AD Under his PRA target, but Jaylen Brown delivered just 3 Assists so that was a loser (cheers mate).
Onwards.
