1-3 yesterday, so take that in mind

Celtics/Atlanta UNDER 199
The Celtics is the number 1 defensive team in the NBA. They've went 3-2 in unders within the past 5 games. However, thoughs overs were against the Bobcats and Portland.
Atlanta has went under 3-2 as well, and their two are against the Kings and Golden State (a team that almost everyone goes over against). Atlanta is 10th in defensive ranking.
Their last contest was back in November, which the total was 189.
199 just looks too large for what may end up being a 90-77 game.

Toronto -4
Yes, Bosh is hurt. Which I'm assuming is playing on this line a little bit, but he is scheduled to play. He didn't play the last time they met each other... in which they won by 19. Wallace did however, who isn't playing today. Toronto has one of the, if not the best bench in the East. So if Bosh doesn't get too many minutes they should be able to cover a 4pt spread.

New Orleans -6
There isn't much stats on this, just a call. Hornets while struggling lost to Washington just a few days ago. After two hard games against the Spurs and Rockets. Got a big win when they whooped up on the Jazz. With Washington still having its two stars out, I don't know if Stevenson can have a dominate game yet again. Even if he does, with the newfound Hornet play. The 6 seems approachable.

Spurs -5 & OVER 183
Again, trends show under. But with the Nets rested, and the Spurs always sitting along the bubble of the over/under line, I think that this total approaches a little too low. Spurs continue to win, and have a solid ATS over the past 10. Nets have been getting some ATS wins of late against mediocre caliber teams. The Nets should be outclassed by 10 or so.
