Celtics vs Knicks Prediction, Picks and Odds for NBA Semifinals Game 7: Bet Boston to Beat NY

The latest NBA line has the Knicks at -2.5 against the Celtics in Game 6, but there is trepidation with New York after a poor showing at TD Garden. The Knicks can finish off the defending champion Celtics with a victory at Madison Square Garden.

Celtics vs Knicks Semifinals Prediction

NBA playoff odds have firmed for the Celtics, who could pull off a road upset to force Game 7 at home. It would be a huge accomplishment for Boston to win without Jayson Tatum.

I predict the Celtics win 108-104 in an epic game.

Celtics vs Knicks Best Player Props Today

• Jalen Brunson Under 29.5 Points (-136)

Brunson had a Game 5 to forget. He scored only 22 points and he picked up an incredible five fouls in the third quarter. He spent only 33 minutes on the court, and looked fatigued and out of ideas in the fourth. That’s not a good sign, so under 30.5 points is featured in my NBA prop bets today.

• Kristaps Porzingis Over 7.5 Points (-114)

Kristaps Porzingis had a shocker in Game 5, scoring one point from 12 minutes. He’s not listed on the injury report with NBA betting news, but he’s clearly having breathing problems. However, he’s a star player for the Celtics, and won’t play unless he’s ready to go. For someone who averages 19.5 points per game, it’s about time he showed up.

Bet on Kristaps Porzingis Over 7.5 Points (-114)

• Luke Kornet 2+ Blocks (-121)

Kornet had a massive last game, recording seven blocks. He got a lot of court time because Porzingis was on the sidelines. However, based on that performance, he should get court time on Friday. Kornet at 2+ blocks is an excellent line as he looks for consecutive standout NBA games.

Celtics vs Knicks Moneyline Pick

My NBA expert picks have the Celtics on the moneyline. The +125 number is worth including in selections as the Celtics look to improve their record with Jayson Tatum to 10-2. The offense flows better without him, and although the injury was unfortunate, not taking countless pull-up jump shots helps the team.

Celtics vs Knicks Spread Pick

The +2.5 line is worth including in parlays. The Celtics are in for the fight, and I would love to see the series head back to TD Garden. Based on Game 5, the Celtics are the right bet for this contest.

Bet on Celtics +2.5 vs Knicks

Celtics vs Knicks Over/Under Pick

I’m jumping on the over 211.5 line. The Celtics’ offense fired up last time on the court, and that could continue in Game 6. They are playing with confidence, and if the teams get into foul trouble again, over 211.5 should have no problem cashing.

Bet on Celtics vs Knicks Over 211 points (-110)
