Utah Jazz vs Boston Celtics NBA Preview
This is a sneaky under spot.
The Celtics are 5-2 to the under this season and have really struggled with their transition offense, ranking in the bottom-10, while Utah, by some grace of God, is actually top five in transition defense — both points and points per possession — despite their horrible halfcourt offense.
Boston ranks 29th in pace, 26th in offensive possession length, and 29th in defensive possession length via DunksAndThrees.com. They are actually a glacial team.
Utah does give up the highest percentage of threes of any team; the Celtics are going to bomb from deep even more so than usual.
However, Boston’s only 32.6% from long range so far this year. They haven’t found their stroke.
Maybe it happens here, but it’s enough to go against a big number like this.
I project this at 229.5 points.
