NBA odds, picks, and predictions for the Boston Celtics at Phoenix Suns on March 9. NBA betting best bet and free pick analysis.
The motivated Celtics have lost two in a row for the first time all season, and against a short-handed Suns squad, our NBA picks don't think the streak hits three.At least, that’s how most people are feeling after the Boston Celtics failed in their quest to take down the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night.
The Celtics' formula, and resume, remain best in class. If they have some stumbles, they only surface against the very best in the Association, a tier that theBooker’s status was upgraded to questionable on Friday, so he may play. But oddsmakers aren’t listing props for him, and the Suns cannot afford to rush Booker back and lose him again.
They’ll have been stewing on that loss for a day and a half straight and will come out hoping to jump on the Suns before the first quarter is up. Scary things happen when they reach that level of motivation .It would be easy to overreact to the Celtics’ offensive flameout against Denver, but they shot 28.9% from three. If they get even a normal poor shooting night they comfortably win, and against Phoenix they’ll have much easier avenues to score inside the arc.
Brown has been known to get off to hot starts, and that’s been even more the case lately. He’s the ninth-leading first quarter scorer in the NBA over the last 10 games, averaging 7.9 points per game. I expect that he’ll lead the charge for the Celtics early in this one.Celtics vs Suns spread and Over/Under analysis
