SBG Global Opening Line: Celtics - 2 , Total 188
The Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics meet on Sunday in Game 7 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series. The teams have gone back and forth with each team putting in strong performances. Sunday's game could come down to which team gets great play out of their superstar. The Magic live and die with Dwight Howard while the Celtics really need Paul Pierce to step up if they are to win.
SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Celtics at Home.
Howard had 23 points and 22 rebounds in Game 6 on Thursday as the Magic won 83-75. "I just tried to be me," Howard said. "I just have to go out there and play and not worry about nothing." Rashard Lewis had 20 points in support of Howard. Rajon Rondo had 19 points, 16 rebounds and six assists for the Celtics, while Paul Pierce was held to 17 points. Both teams get two days off before the Game 7 on Sunday that will be televised by TNT. "I would take a week off and do it like the Super Bowl," Boston head coach Doc Rivers said, "That would be terrific. But that's not going to happen."
The Celtics had trouble on offense in Game 6 and that ultimately cost them the game. "The offense definitely struggled," Pierce said. "But we still played enough defense to win the game. We turned the ball over too much."
