Command Analysis

Boston Celtics

Current form
The Celts are confidently moving to the top of the Eastern Conference and have already pulled away from New York by several wins. Joe Mazzula has found a balance between attack and defense, which allows the team to act consistently throughout the season.
In recent matches, Boston has scored two solid wins. First, Indiana was defeated (131:104), and then Miami did not have a chance (103:85). Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown scored a great move, and the defense is solid.
The Celtics continue to fight for the leadership in the conference, but they are already starting to think about the playoffs. In the upcoming match against San Antonio, the hosts look like clear favorites and will surely continue their winning streak.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team approaches the confrontation in an optimal form.
Interesting facts for betting
The Celtics have won four of their last five games.
Approximate composition: Tatum - Horford, Porzingis-White, Brown

San Antonio Spurs

Current form
The Spurs still can't get out of the bottom of the table. The team lost the competition even to Phoenix and is now trying to somehow catch on to the positive results.
In the last round, San Antonio managed to beat Washington (131:121). However, it is worth considering that the opponent is an outsider of the Eastern Conference. Victor Vembanyama continues to lead the team, although there is not enough support from partners yet.
The next match will be a serious test. Going to Boston against one of the best teams in the league is a real challenge for Gregg Popovich's young team.
Disqualifications and injuries
Charles Bassey and Ricky Minix will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
Since the beginning of the season, San Antonio has recorded ten away wins.
Approximate composition: Wassell-Barnes, Vembanyama-Fox, Paul.

Boston confidently controls the situation in the Eastern Conference and acts in a very organized manner. Joe Mazzulla's team relies on aggressive defense and a powerful attack, which makes them one of the main contenders for the championship.
San Antonio continues to look for its own game. Gregg Popovich is experimenting with the squad, but so far the young team cannot consistently show a high level. In our opinion, the hosts are in full control of the situation and will not experience any special problems in this match. The Celtics must surely take the victory.
Our forecast is for Boston to win, taking into account the handicap (-6.5) points in 1.73
Bet on the total
In the last match, San Antonio showed decent performance. However, it will be more difficult to implement attacks against Boston. The Celtics have Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown in their squad, who are capable of scoring a lot of points. We expect that the meeting will be held at a high pace, and the overall total will be broken.
Forecast - total more than 229.5 points for 1.66

The Celtics are confident playing number one, especially at home. They continue their winning streak and will be motivated to extend their successful performance. We believe that the hosts will once again show productive basketball and break through the individual total.
