- The Celtics are much better on the defensive end of the floor than the Bucks, giving up just 111 points per game compared to Milwaukee’s 119.9 ppg average on defense.
- Milwaukee is 15-21-1 against the spread this season, putting them in the bottom-five in the NBA against the number this year.
The Celtics vs Bucks matchup in the NBA on Thursday night is a possible Eastern Conference Finals preview. In that game, the Boston Celtics should be able to cover the spread as a five-point underdog on the road. While Boston did play an overtime game last night, they also have a much better defense than that of the Bucks, which will help them offset their rest disadvantage. Expect this game to come down to the final seconds and for Boston to cover no matter who wins in the end.
