Why the Celtics can cover the spread

The Celtics have been a bit underrated without Irving, and they have gone an impressive 7-1 ATS in the past eight meetings, according to the OddsShark NBA Database.

With Marcus Smart coming back from a thumb injury in Game 5, they have another guard who can create and score to help replace Irving, adding some much-needed depth.
