Boston dominates at home – 21-11 at TD Garden, scoring 118.1 PPG there. Their defense allows just 109.8 PPG at home, top-tier in the NBA. Lakers’ offense dips on the road – 111.0 PPG away vs. 115.3 at home. Boston also holds opponents to 45.5% FG at home, while L.A. struggles against top-tier defenses.
Celtics’ offense remains elite despite injuries – 117.0 PPG, 37.2% from three (5th). Lakers’ defense ranks just 17th in opponent FG% (46.0), and their 3P defense is even weaker at 34.7%. Tatum thrives against L.A., averaging 26.9 PPG this season. If Brown returns, Boston’s offense gets another boost.
Boston’s defense is the difference – 2nd in opponent scoring (108.3 PPG), 4th in opponent FG% (45.3). Lakers rely on transition, but Boston limits fast-break points. Celtics also outrebound L.A. (45.0 RPG vs. 42.7). In their last meeting, Boston shot just 38.5% – expect a bounce-back at home.
