Celtics only favored by 6 1/2 over the Hawks? Really?

Rockets-Memphis? Clippers-Hornets? Jazz-Magic?

All good match ups.

I'll be checking for the 76ers/Warriors game.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

It does seem puzzling at first. However, the Celtics only have an average 4.8 point margin of victory in their last 6 games. One of those was the Hawks, who they only beat by 3. Then you have Atlanta coming off a massive 46 point blowout of Sacramento (FWIW).

Hawks are #2 in 3P% and Boston is #4 in 3P% defense, so we'll see what happens. Strangely, Atlanta is only #19 in 3 point attempts, with that high percentage, not sure why they aren't trying to take advantage of it more.

As usual, there'll be a bunch of upsets because that's how the NBA is going nowadays.

Warriors will be disappointed about giving up a dominant performance and letting Boston off the hook, expecting them to come out and keep the foot flat down on the pedal today.

When one team has the next 5+ titles on lock, no, there is no parity.

Until Elfrid Payton decides he's a professional athlete and not a member of an 80's glam pop band, I refuse to watch the Orlando Magic play.
