When are the Boston Celtics going to show up at home in the playoffs?
Boston is just 4-4 at TD Garden this postseason, losing Game 1 to the Miami Heat on Wednesday night to fall down in the series. However, Boston is still favored at -210 to win the series.
After closing as 8-point favorites in Game 1, Boston is now favored by nine against the Heat in Game 2, a sign that oddsmakers expect them to bounce back.
There is also a trend that supports Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and company, as home teams that have lost Game 1 are a perfect 16-0 in the last 16 instances of it occurring, including an impressive 15-1 against the spread.
