In the current NBA playoff bracket, the Celtics hold the #1 seed in the East by a wide margin, eight games ahead of both Cleveland and Milwaukee. The Warriors have moved up to ninth in the West, but are still 2.5 games back of the top six.

Warriors Rout Raptors to Stay Perfect on Road Trip

Golden State made it 3-for-3 on its current road trip on Friday, taking down the Raptors 120-105 in Toronto. Steph Curry (27.5 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 5.0 APG) had a team-high 25 points plus six rebounds and six assists, while breakout star Jonathan Kuminga added 24 points and six boards. Draymond Green was huge defensively, grabbing 13 rebounds with two blocks and a steal as the Dubs finished with a 56-47 edge on the glass.

Another solid defensive performance from Golden State moved the team to 17th in D-Rating this season (115.3). The Warriors were in the mid-20s back in late January, when they were also five games under .500. Their O-Rating (117.3) is good enough for ninth in the league. Third-year pro Kuminga (15.7 PPG, 4.8 RPG) has been a huge part of keeping the offense efficient, especially of late. The Congolese forward has scored 20-plus points in three straight games.

Andrew Wiggins remains out of today’s NBA lineups for personal reasons. Curry is listed as questionable with knee bursitis. He has played at least 30 minutes in each of Golden State’s last six games.

Celtics Keep Rolling

Since dropping a 114-105 decision at home to the Lakers on Feb. 1 – a game which neither LeBron James nor Anthony Davis participated in – the Celtics have taken their frustrations out on the rest of the league. Boston has rattled off ten straight wins since, most-recently crushing the Mavericks 138-110 at home on Friday. The C’s dominated almost every facet of the game, especially three-point shooting. Boston went 21-of-43 from deep (48.4%) while holding Dallas to just 26.5% (9-of-34).

Jayson Tatum (27.1 PPG, 8.5 RPG, 4.8 APG) had a team-high 32 points in the win, the first time in the past six games he’d reached the 30-point plateau.

Boston has recently overtaken Indiana for the best Offensive Rating in the league (121.5) which is on track to be the best O-Rating in NBA history. Boston’s defense, of course, is nearly as good as its offense. The team sits third in D-Rating at 110.6 and is the only team in the top three of both categories.

This will be the second and final regular-season meeting between the teams this year. Boston took a thrilling 132-126 OT win in the Bay Area back on Dec. 19, getting 30 points from Derrick White and overcoming 20 three-pointers form the Warriors.

The Celtics are mostly healthy heading into Sunday’s game. Center Kristaps Porzingis is listed as questionable with a quad contusion.

Tatum has the highest point total on the board at 27.5 while Curry is the highest Golden State player at 25.5. If he doesn’t play, wagers on his over/unders will be voided.

Warriors vs Celtics Prediction

With Boston an impeccable 28-3 at home this season, I am not prepared to bet on Golden State winning straight-up, as confident as I am that Steve Kerr’s team has turned a real corner. I do expect this game to be close, though, and 10.5 is a massive spread. The Warriors have covered 11 of their last 13 games, and have the third-best ATS record in the league this year (33-25-1).

GSW vs BOS pick: Warriors +10.5 (-110)
