The Celtics dominated the second half of their previous game, leading the Pacers by 20 points at halftime on Wednesday. They ultimately secured their 27th victory of the year, winning 119-104. Two days later, the Celtics will face another team well below .500, the 12-30 Nets, with Boston holding an 8.5-point advantage at the Barclays Center.
Jaylen Brown continues to have an excellent season. He scored 30 points against Indiana, along with 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals. Brown has consistently delivered strong performances, scoring at least 25 points in each of his last 10 games, including one 50-point performance. In the victory, Sam Hauser also made three three-pointers and scored 17 points, the same number as Neemias Queta.
That same day, the Nets lost to the Knicks, their third straight loss and eighth in their last 10. It was a complete blowout, the Nets' worst loss of the season, falling by 54 points. Porter Jr. also struggled, shooting 4-for-14, yet still managed to lead Brooklyn with 12 points.

Our Brooklyn Nets vs Boston Celtics Prediction
The Nets failed to register a single second-chance point and grabbed just 4 offensive rebounds in a worrying performance against the Knicks. Even Jordi Fernández said, "This was a tough one." The loss was historic, as Brooklyn scored its fewest points in a game since a loss to the Heat in 2005.
To make matters worse, Brooklyn is consistently losing control of the game as early as the first quarter; the Celtics' ATS record is very positive, and they could even build a double-digit lead entering the second quarter, as has been common for the Nets in January.
Our prediction for Nets vs Celtics is: Celtics -8.5.
