LiontipsBoston vs Lakers. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Results of Ime Udoka's men improved, but team's performance is still not good enough. Sometimes Celtics are looking too bad. For example, in the match against Atlanta, in which Celtics suffered a 99:110 defeat.
We should note that after a change of head coach Celtics started to play more defensively. Now team is playing more slowly. That's why team's performance is not always high-scoring. In 4 out of 5 most recent Udoka's men failed to score more than 107 points.
Lakers recorded almost all of their victories at home. Lakers are not looking too good on away matches. In recent away matches they lost to Oklahoma (115:123), Portland (90:105) and Milwaukee (102:109).
Before the start of the new season Lakers' board chose to rebuild the squad. But so far everything is not looking too good for them. LeBron James' injury made everything even worse. That's why Vogel's men are not looking too good now.

Tip and bets
Both opponents are not looking too good on the offense. Boston averages 106 points per game at home. Lakers are averaging 108 points per game on away matches. We don't think that teams will be able to improve results. Teams are unlikely to beat the total of 220,5 points.
Our prediction - total under 220,5 points
Boston will play at home, so they have a great chance to record a victory. Lakers are too inconsistent on away matches. We don't think that Vogel's men will succeed. We offer to place a bet on the hosts.
Our second bet is on Boston to win (Including OT)
