Celtics vs. Bucks: Boston favored in Eastern Conference showdown
Celtics have won seven of last 10 meetings
Boston has been solid on the spread this season
The Celtics are much better defensively and have the scoring depth to match up with the Bucks quite well. Boston has beaten Milwaukee in seven of their last ten meetings and Boston has been solid on the spread this season, 40-34-4 compared to Milwaukee's 33-44-1.
Until I see changes in Milwaukee, I'm going to avoid betting on them.
The Milwaukee Bucks play host to the Boston Celtics in an Eastern Conference showdown on Tuesday night from Fiserv Forum. The Celtics enter having already clinched the Eastern Conference title while the Bucks sit in second-place, still 14.5 games back.
The two have met three times already this season, with Boston clinging to a 2-1 advantage. The Celtics won the first two meetings, both in Boston, by scores of 134-131 and 115-103. The Bucks won the most recent meeting, in Milwaukee, by a score of 115-105.
The Celtics are coming off a 124-107 win over the Trail Blazers on Sunday, while the Bucks are coming off a 124-121 loss to the Nets on Saturday.
