Boston Celtics At Miami Heat
ATS - CELTICS +7.5 (x1) WIN
Miami host Boston in a big revenge match for the Heat! Miami were beaten badly against the Celtics last start. Rondo had a day out! A huge triple double and really exposed a weakness in Miami's line up. Charmers at the point was clearly out of his depth and Rondo will again look to take control of this match.
Wade will return after taking the last game off with and ankle compliant, weather he is 100% is unknown as he was always going to suit up for this rematch! Both teams here have had a night off and that works in Boston's favour. As the older team they clearly perform at the best with rest.
While Miami are always hard to beat at home and have revenge on their minds I like Boston in this spot getting 7.5 start. They are an experienced team and will be well prepared for Miami just as they were last start. The Celtics big four are healthy, Garnet has been in red hot form this past month, Allen seems to has embraced his new role off the bench, Pierce is always dangerous and well Rondo is they key tonight! I believe he will control the tempo of this game and I expect a tough and close match. Like the points here.

New York Knicks At Chicago Bulls
ATS - KNICKS +9 (x1.5) LOSS

I expect the Bulls to respond here and are exceptional at home. However New York is in fantastic form and full of confidence right now. Shumpert was huge defensively in their last game, really putting the clamps on Rose and didn't give him any easy looks. Expect much of the same here. Deng needs to turn up also, at least defensively as Melo just did as he pleased last game. While when he is in that frame of mind he is almost impossible to stop, Deng also needs to offer something on offense.
Rumour is Rose pulled up sore after his first game back. As anyone who has returned from a long lay off with injury will know, it's much harder to get up for your second game back. With that in mind I like the Knicks to be really competitive here and happy to take the +9 on offer!
