God Damn , I love Spartacus

That point spread has me being tenative because it's perfect
You have to go out on a limb no matter how you bet

My guess is Boston will need to come out and show they're the team that has home court advantage through the playoffs. They had the best road record in the regular season and now cannot buy a game on the road , so the pressure is on them to show they are the team everyone says they are. That's a two edged sword however... You can crack under pressure or you can overcome it. The question is how will Boston come out after EVERYONE is basically saying they suck because they haven't played like the team with the best record in the NBA
