The Boston Celtics trounced the Orlando Magic when the teams met in Beantown
on Monday night, so Dwight Howard and company will be looking
to turn the tables when the squads stage a rematch in the Sunshine State on
Thursday.

hardwood. Bet on the NBA at Bovada.
The Celtics held
the Magic to just 20 second-half points on Monday en route to an easy 87-56
victory. Orlando had actually been favored by 7 points on the road in that game;
the combined score fell well UNDER the posted total of 175.5
points.
Rajon Rondo (wrist) and Ray
Allen (ankle) didn't even play for Boston on Monday, with Paul
Pierce leading the team on offense with 19 points and seven assists.
Kevin Garnett picked up 14 points and 10 rebounds for the
Celtics in that Monday victory.
Howard was the lone bright spot for the
Magic on Monday, as he scored 18 points to go along with 14 rebounds.
Hedo Turkoglu tossed in seven points for Orlando that
day.
The Celtics will be hoping that Monday's win will snap them out of
their early-season funk – they head into Thursday's game at just 7-9 straight up
and 8-8 against the spread on the season.
And Boston also has a solid
track record against Orlando in the past couple of seasons, as they're 7-3
straight up and 6-3-1 against the spread in their past 10 games against the
Magic. The OVER/UNDER went 2-7-1 in those 10 contests.
Allen isn't
expected to play for Boston on Thursday, but Rondo is probable to
play.
