The Boston Celtics will be on a back to back as they face the San Antonio Spurs in an NBA pro basketball game on Saturday night.
Tip off time from San Antonio is scheduled for 8:30PM Eastern Time with national television coverage provided by the NBA TV.
The current NBA odds from this contest has the home club San Antonio Spurs favored by -8 ½ points with an over under line of 199 points. There has been no line movement since the odds opened up a few hours ago.
The teams met once this season back on November 21st with San Antonio posting the 112-100 road win at Boston as a -1 ½ point favorite. The game went over 193 ½ points. The Spurs shot lights out making 58% from the floor and 8 of 16 from three. Trend: San Antonio Spurs are 0-2 ATS in their past two games.
Boston loses their third straight road game in a 101-89 road defeat last night to the Houston Rockets as a +2 ½ point underdog. They fall to 12-10 on the season. The total ended under 207 points. The Celtics were held to just 40% shooting by a bad defensive team in Houston. On the year Boston is 4-6 on the road.
The Spurs return home from a four game road trip. They started off with wins against Charlotte and Houston but lose the final two games with a 99-96 defeat at Utah and on a back to back they lose at Portland on Thursday 98-90 as a -7 point favorite. After putting up some monster offensive numbers we have seen the Spurs held under 100 points in back to back nights. Utah you can understand but Portland is a bad defensive team. San Antonio plays a lot of players. Fifteen players average double digits minutes so the Spurs have the ability to bring fresh productive legs in their lineup against an old Celtics roster playing a back to back. The Spurs are 7-2 on their home court. At home they make 47% of their shots an average near 104 points per game.
