Champions League Tips

Charlotte dominated the Celtics in the first meeting of the season, so this is a solid revenge spot for the Cs. Boston has the rest advantage as well, they’ve not yet wrapped up the 2nd seed in the East so the sense of urgency to win will be big here. I’ll back the more battle tested Celtics here.

LA is looking to win a 5th straight game, taking on a Bucks team that’s lost 3 straight by 30 or more points. Milwaukee is also playing on a 2nd night of a back-to-back, they’ve covered just once in 6 games vs West opponents. Kawhi and co. should have enough to cover this huge number.

What’s not to like about the Knicks here? The Thunder rely on turnovers and transition, but the Knicks protect the ball and force half-court play. That removes OKC’s biggest edge. New York also holds a clear rebounding advantage. We’ve already seen a 103-100 result between these teams that required overtime. The Knicks are live here and have every chance to win this outright.

France usually score multiple goals and have recently been keeping clean sheets in competitive games too. This may only be a friendly, but some of the French players are battling for squad roles and should be determined to earn a 2-0 win.
