Boston Celtics Form

Boston head to the West Coast looking bounce back from Saturday’s defeat and kick-start a run of consistent form.

The Celtics enjoyed a three-game win streak over the New Year period, but have struggled for consistency since the 105-92 defeat at Oklahoma City.

They rebounded to win 118-106 in Denver, only to then immediately return to losing ways with a 114-97 defeat at home to Sacramento.

Boston responded by beating New Orleans 120-119, and then responded to a 110-97 defeat in Toronto with a 121-94 blowout of Orlando at home.

The Celtics failed to make it back-to-back victories though, as they then lost 119-115 in overtime at home to Atlanta.

Golden State Warriors Form

Golden State enter this matchup looking to string together three wins for the first time since November.

The Warriors endured a rough run of form in early January as they lost four times in a five-game spell.

They lost 129-99 to Sacramento and 114-98 to Miami, before failing to build on a 107-104 victory in Detroit as they lost 108-96 at Indiana and 104-101 in Toronto.

Golden State have not lost since though, wrapping up their four-game road trip with a 116-115 win at Minnesota.

The Warriors then backed that up as they returned home to take down Washington, 122-114, over the weekend.

Verdict

Boston have been hit or miss over the past couple of weeks, but they are the healthier team.

Therefore we are leaning towards the defending NBA champions getting the job done.
