The Boston Celtics welcome the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight at TD Garden with an unblemished home record.  Seeking their sixth straight win at home, the Celtics average margin of victory is 10.6 points per game and Boston is looking like the team to beat in the Eastern Conference. 

This game will showcase a premier point guard matchup with the Thunder’s Russell Westbrook and the Celtics’ Rajon Rondo.  The Celtic offense has been a challenge for opposing defenses to contain - especially with Rondo’s astounding average of 14.9 assists per NBA lines game.

Boston’s Big Three- Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, and Kevin Garnett- currently account for 54.9 points a game will Rondo acting as the orchestrator and creator.

Furthermore, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen have been shooting “lights-out” from three; Pierce is averaging 47.5 percent and Allen his shooting 45.3 percent from downtown.  It seems these two can just spot-up all NBA lines season behind the arc and wait to be found by Rondo.

As long as Rondo continues to create like he has been, this Boston offense will be unstoppable.
