Prediction published on 10/28/24, 9:36 AM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 10/28/24 at 9:58 AM in NBA Picks

With odds as low as -454 the Celtics will be the favorites to win their fourth game of the season at TD Garden when they host the Bucks. The Milwaukee team beat the 76ers in their opener but then lost the next two games as favorites against the Bulls and the Nets two days later.

The Bucks will have to make adjustments when they play back-to-back games for the first time this season. The Bucks coach stated that they needed to make an effort to free themselves up offensively and that they were taking too many difficult shots. On 3-point shots against the Nets in the last game the Bucks were very inaccurate, they only shot 30.3% against the Nets and Lillard did not have a good night from long range as he shot just 1 of 7.

The Celtics continue to be the dominant force in the current NBA with a star-studded 3-point shooting team like few in the past. In the last game, they scored 42 points against the Pistons, who nevertheless came back in the game with an 18-3 run to take the lead in the third quarter. Finally, an 18-6 run by the Celtics with 5 minutes left would maintain the undefeated streak of the Boston team.
