OutKick Bets: Cash In On Celtics-Nets

"The current lines according to PointsBet Sportsbook has Boston as the 3.5 favorites with a total of 226," she said.

"This game is a coin-flip, clearly, as we had a buzzer-beater in Game 1 and I like that they are going in as the underdogs tonight," she said. "On top of that, the Nets have actually gone 5-1 against the spread in their last six games against teams with a winning percentage."

Knierim is taking Brooklyn at +3.5 and hoping KD has a better night than he did in Game 1 — as long as the team can collect themselves, clean up the turnovers, and play to the level we know they can, Knierim thinks it's easy enough.
