The Celtics demolished the 76ers in Boston on Sunday afternoon in Game 1, in what could be a quick series. The C’s jumped out to an early lead and never looked back, ultimately winning by 32 points. Boston is a massive favorite again in Game 2, as the Sixers look for answers to try and make this a competitive series.
Maybe Philadelphia makes some adjustments to put up a better fight on Tuesday night, but without Joel Embiid, it’s tough to see a path to victory, particularly for the road games in Boston. I like the Celtics to go wire-to-wire once again, and am using the first half moneyline and full game moneyline as two legs of my three-leg Same Game Parlay.
One of the sparks early on for the Celtics was Sam Hauser, who hit two early three pointers, and wound up going 4-for-6 from beyond the arc on Sunday afternoon. The overwhelming offensive firepower from the Celtics created a lot of wide open looks for him, resulting in easy makes. Hauser, who knocked down eight triples in his regular season finale, has now made multiple three pointers in eight of his last 11 games. I’m adding Hauser to hit 2+ threes again on Tuesday to round out this reasonable SGP.
No big asks here, just the Celtics to control Game 2 and create more open looks for Hauser. The three legs combined to give us -130 odds when I posted the play in the NBA Player Pulse betting group on DraftKings Sportsbook.
