Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction, Picks and Odds for Friday, February 27

The Boston Celtics will lock horns with the Brooklyn Nets in an expected lopsided game on Friday at home, TD Garden. The Celtics, who have occupied the second spot in the East, are walking into the game on the back of a loss to the Denver Nuggets. This marked their second loss in the last ten games, clearly suggesting that the Celtics are in excellent form. The Nets, on the other hand, are struggling as always. They are placed at the bottom-second spot in East, and are coming off a six-game losing streak.

The Celtics are heavy 17.5-point favorites with moneyline at -1350 and total around 208.5 points. These NBA odds tonight suggest that the 18-time champions are highly likely to dominate their homecourt and hand the Nets their seventh-straight loss. We have got our Best Bet, a same-game parlay, and a few player props for tonight’s game.

Here’s how we are betting for Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets on Friday.

Best Bet for Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets

Best Bet: Boston Celtics -17.5 (-110)

Book: Best price at FanDuel

Our best bet for Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets is Boston Celtics -17.5 (-110) against the spread.

The Boston Celtics are one of the strongest teams this season. Seeded second in the conference with a strong record, the Celtics have won 18 of their 27 games at home thus far. Statistically, the Celtics have the second-best offensive rating in the league, while their defense has booked them the seventh spot. On the other hand, the Nets are struggling with a disappointing 7-22 record on the road, and are on a losing skid as well. Not only this, but they also have one of the worst offenses and defenses in the league.

The spread at Celtics -17.5 fits the hosts well considering the difference in form between both the teams. We expect Boston to cover the number seamlessly.

Keeping their elite on-court metrics, form and overall record in mind, we are comfortably laying the Boston Celtics -17.5 (-110) as our Best Bet.

Same-Game Parlay Picks for Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets

3-Leg SGP (Safer)

Leg 1: Boston Celtics -20.5 (alternate spread)
Leg 2: Jaylen Brown Over 29.5 points
Leg 3: Derrick White Over 17.5 points

Combined odds: +875

We have built this same-game parlay around the Boston Celtics to win big at home. Jaylen Brown and Derrick White are the key Celtics scorers, who are likely to exploit the Nets’ poor defense and put up a good score against them.

These legs are correlated considering if the Celtics dominate the game right from the beginning, their players will get volume. With this, they would get more scoring opportunities and put big numbers on the statsheet. Hence, this is our safer SGP option.

Michael Porter Jr. over 21.5 points (+100)
Noah Clowney over 11.5 points (-132)
Jaylen Brown Over 7.5 rebounds (+116)

These legs fit well into usage and volume. Michael Porter Jr, and Noah Clowney are two reliable names when it comes to the Nets’ offense.
