Knicks vs Celtics Same Game Parlay Picks Today, May, Wednesday 7

Boston’s Game 1 collapse may have sparked concern, but don’t overreact. The Celtics dominated early, built a massive lead, and just went ice cold. They still have the edge with their depth and extra motivation. The Celtics remain the smarter side to back. The NBA odds still favor the Celtics heavily, and we’re building a parlay around a strong bounce-back in Game 2 from the defending NBA champions.

Leg 1: Boston Celtics ML (-525)
The Celtics are unlikely to have another historically bad shooting night, while the Knicks won’t be as hot. Boston missed over 75% of its 3-pointers yet still forced overtime against New York. If anything, that game proved how dangerous this team remains even when ice-cold. With home-court advantage and elite two-way depth, Boston should bounce back.
Boston’s consistency after losses makes it a strong moneyline leg for NBA picks today. The Celtics are 20-2 following a defeat this season and have won their last four games by double digits. That kind of dominance is why their NBA parlay odds remain steep but reliable. Count on them to get back on track and overpower the Knicks in Game 2.

Leg 2: Knicks vs Celtics Over 211 Points
Boston’s Game 1 brick-fest was an outlier, not a trend. With elite scorers and home-court urgency, expect the Celtics to open the floor and push the pace. New York can keep up enough to help the total climb, especially with 55.2% of its conference games going over. As shooting normalizes, the over becomes a sharp NBA parlay pick to complement a Boston ML leg.

Jayson Tatum missed an entire game in the first round vs. the Magic.
He STILL led the team in total points and rebounds and finished the series just 3 assists behind Derrick White.

Leg 3: Jayson Tatum 28+ Points (-125)
Jayson Tatum’s off-night in Game 1 was an exception. The Celtics star has scored 30+ in five of his last seven playoff games before that clunker, and with Boston likely to bounce back in a blowout, Tatum should still see enough usage to clear this NBA player prop. Expect a sharper shooting night and a solid prop to parlay.
Bet on Jayson Tatum 28+ Points (-125)

Leg 4: Largest Lead Over 17.5 Points (-137)
Boston’s tendency to build big leads strengthens the case for this NBA parlay pick. The Celtics led by 20 in Game 1 before falling apart, and they’ve routinely pulled ahead by wide margins at home, where they boast a +14.6 net rating in the playoffs and were +12.4 during the regular season against East foes. This prop should cash like last time.
Bet on Largest Lead Over 17.5 Points (-137)
