| Boston Celtics and the Chicago Bulls Battle For the Top Spot in the East |
BetPhoenix is the best online sportsbook to wager on the NBA and they have the latest odds on this and all other games on the schedule. There may be no better way to prepare for the playoffs than hosting the powerful Boston Celtics with home-court advantage at stake. When the Celtics visit the United Center on Thursday, the Bulls can put a stranglehold on first place in the Eastern Conference. A victory would reduce the Bulls' magic number to 1 with four games to play. This is a spot few people dreamed the Bulls would see this season, sitting in the driver's seat with a chance to finish ahead of Boston and Miami in the standings. If the Bulls can hang on to the No. 1 playoff seed, the Celtics and Heat would have to face off against each other in the second round of the playoffs. The Bulls wouldn't have an easy path, with a chance to play the winner of Orlando-Atlanta in the second round, but it has to be better than the alternative. Besides leading the East, the Bulls are still in contention for the overall top playoff seed. After Tuesday's action, they trailed San Antonio by one loss. Since those teams split the season series and own identical records against the opposite conference, if they finish with the same record and meet in the Finals, a random drawing would determine home-court advantage. The Celtics are 16-41-1 ATS in their last 58 games following a win of more than 10 points and the Bulls are 37-17 ATS in their last 54 games playing on 1 days’ rest. The Bulls get a big win over the Celtics and send a message to the rest of the league.
