NBA Betting: Boston Celtics vs. Minnesota Timberwolves
NBA betting fans have been impressed with the Boston Celtics and their 9-2 straight up start to the online basketball betting season. Perhaps they have been too impressed as all of that NBA betting activity on Boston has caused the Celtics to have a slow 4-7 start against the NBA betting lines.
Boston, like most defending champions in all sports, will suffer a loss of NBA betting value as more of the casual public will want to get down on a team that is a powerhouse and loaded with superstars, regardless of the actual NBA betting value merits.
