**3.3 Dime NBA POD - Celtics vs. Hawks - Game of the Night 7

[Pick Bot]

Last night's POD loser on the Knicks was another one of the frustrating losses I have had in the past 2-3 weeks. For whatever reason luck just is not on my side. The Knicks cruised to a 14 lead to open up the game and were up 5 with less than a minute left and they just collapsed to lose by 2 points. Tonight we come back with a team a little bit more reliable than the NY Knickerbockers. Grab the 3.3 Dime NBA POD Guaranteed or 1 day FREE NBA for Just $10!

Celtics +4 (3.3 Dime NBA POD)
I'm going with the Celtics this team has to be frustrated. They led by 16 at one point last night and came up with the loss somehow. Now they face probably their most frustrating opponent in the Hawks and if there is a team defensively that can slow down the Hawks it's the Celtics. They have not proven to be able to do it yet this year, but this will be the first time they will have Garnett back. They also were without Wallace in another game they almost won that game regardless but it was 15 less FTA and -12 in the turnover margin that ruined that for them after they led by 14 at one point.

Tonight I think they will keep this game close and pull away for the outright victory. We saw glimpses of the real Celtics with Garnett last night and the fact that they had a very tough loss against a conference rival makes it all that more important when they travel to play the Hawks. They are a resilient bunch as we have seen over the years. Never count them out as under dogs they are 49-21-1 ATS in their last 71 games as a road under dog.
