Celtics vs. Warriors Prediction

Despite their grueling season thus far, it's hard to discount how dangerous the Warriors' home-game line-up can be. Offensively, they can still be one of the most explosive teams in the sport, even if they've failed to live up to their showings last year. With the legendary Stephen Curry seemingly cleared for action, an upset win's not out of the question here.

That being said, the Celtics have mostly moved from strength to strength this season and have a good deal of momentum heading into tonight's game. Offensively, they can match the dangerous Warriors on the court, and they've proven to be one of the most cohesive teams in the league this season. The Celtics sending the crowd home unhappy seems very plausible tonight.

Celtics: -3 (-110)
