Washington Wizards 105-115 Boston Celtics
Besides the exciting and physical basketball, many sports betting fans will remember this playoff series between the Boston Celtics and the Washington Wizards as a study of the home court.
There were no upsets in the betting odds as they defended their house. The home team disregarded the provocations of their opponents and didn’t allow them to celebrate at their house. Mobile betting regulars who backed the home team won handsomely.
Of course, the Celtics placed their hopes on the shoulders of the smallest player on the court. Isaiah Thomas ended the game with 29 points, 2 rebounds, 12 assists and a steal. His immense talent did a lot to help the Celtics seal the victory at home.
However, the caped hero for the Celtics wore his hair long and stood 7’0”. Kelly Olynyk got branded as “dirty” for his physical plays, but his 26 points off the bench were what killed the Wizards. Fans will expect him to bring his gritty play against the Cavaliers, making Kevin Love literally look over his shoulder every now and then.
His play brings us to another interesting statistic: the Wizards bench was outscored 47-5 by their Celtic counterparts. Bojan Bogdanovic was the only Wizard who pitched into his team’s 105 points. John Wall and Bradley Beal’s heroics mean nothing if the bench cannot provide relief to the starting unit. Expect a total overhaul of the bench once the offseason officially kicks in for the league.
With this victory, Brad Stevens and his merry band will now focus on their biggest test yet. The Cleveland Cavaliers had plenty of rest after sweeping through the first two rounds and will be ready to pounce on the exhausted Celtics.
This will be a struggle for Boston, but IT will relish the chance of being able to prove himself against the best basketball player today. Betting fans will also enjoy the fireworks and the betting odds that these two clubs will bring.
