Boston / Miami under 187

So tonight we get another rematch from last years playoffs for both teams and I am pretty sure that these 2 teams will have no love lost that's for sure. The Heat handled them in 5 games last year and you know the Celts are going to want to show them that are still a team in the East that is going to have to be dealt with once again. I just don't think that is going to happen in this game. The obvious problem is no Pierce and since he won't be playing so Rondo is going to have to come up big again just like against the Knicks for the Celtics to stand a chance in this game... Their defense is going to have to play better. They can't allow them to shoot 50% I just don't know if they can. You know the Heat's defense will be to try and cut the head of the snake off and force the other guys around him to beat em. We all know Ray isnt' the type of player to create his own shot he rely's heavily on his teammates to get him open and for Rondo to him in his spots. KG will be KG and get you 15 and 10, but where else is the offense going to come from. On Chirstmas day they were fortunate to be playing a Knicks team that doesn't pride themselves on defense and Rondo was able to create for himself and his teammates. I don't think that will happen to much tonight. If the Heat treat Rondo like they did Rose and put Lebron on him since he won't have to be checking Pierce it should cause fits for the Celtics. The oddsmakers got this at a dd spread so they don't think the Celts have a chance. I look for this game to out of reach by the end of the 3rd quarter and Doc putting in the scrubs since they got a game tomorrow. Let's go defense!

Good luck!
