We are down to the last couple of days of the regular NBA betting season, and the playoff picture is beginning to look a little clearer. There are still some questions to be answered in the Eastern Conference, though, as the 7th and 8th seeds are yet to be officially filled. What makes that race all the more exciting is that none of the teams fighting for those spots are backing their way in, as they are all winning some pretty big games. The Boston Celtics are one of those teams, and just one more win in their final 2 games should be enough to see them in.
Raptors vs Celtics: NBA Betting Analysis and Game Preview

What makes the Celtics story so great is that they looked to have the toughest home stretch of all the teams in the playoff hunt. They had back to back games against the Cleveland Cavaliers over the weekend, and they managed to win both. The second of those games, which ended up being a 117-78 blowout, was something of a gimme, as the Cavs rested all of their main players. Next up for the Celtics are the Toronto Raptors, another team that has already booked their playoff spot, and who may also be thinking about giving their key personnel a night off. That is followed up by a game against another playoff bound team, the Milwaukee Bucks. The Celtics have won 4 in a row and 6 of their last 7, so it doesn’t seem out of the question to think they might win one of those 2 games.
