Preview
Chicago Bulls will meet Boston Celtics on Wednesday in Chicago, this will be the fourth game between them after the Bulls won first 2 games and then the Celtics won the most recent one. Celtics are in a much better form though and should get the win here with no troubles.
Boston Celtics had a really good rest for them before the Playoffs as they last played on Sunday in game that was a blow out win for them vs the Wizards, so they will be rested and ready for this game that is important for them to get that 2nd seed if they want it. Brown, Tatum and AL Horford are all probable for this game but they should be good to go.
Chicago Bulls are playing on a back to back after they got blown out by the Bucks last night 126-107 even with DeRozen scoring 40 points that game, The Bulls are likely to still as the 6th seed this season and face the Bucks, Celtics or Sixers as all three of them are tied and next few games will decide it.
Trends
Chicago are 5-14 ATS last 19 games.
Chicago games have gone Under in 14 of last 20 games.
Chicago 12-6 ATS last 18 home games.
Chicago 6-13 straight up last 19 games.

Boston are 13-5 straight up last 18 games vs the Bulls.
Boston games have gone Over in 8 of last 9 games.
Boston are 13-3 straight up last 16 games.
Head to Head
Boston have won 6 of the last 10 games with the Bulls but ATS wise it's a split between both teams with 5 covers each, The O/U is 4-6 to the Under in that span with Boston Celtics averaging 112.6 points and Chicago Bulls averaging 105.6 points a game.
Prediction
I like the more rested team that last played on Sunday and the better team Boston Celtics to win and cover the spread in this team vs Bulls team that don't do well vs the good team and we had the Bucks vs them yesterday and it went as expected. Bulls only advantage here is that they well better at home and might put a fight for 2 or 3 quarters but i see the Celtics taking it all at the fourth quarter so give me the Celtics here.
Pick: Boston Celtics -7.5 (-110)
