The NBA is back, after the break for the All Star Weekend, a night full of games, we are going to the United Center in Chicago, a game between the Chicago Bulls and the Boston Celtics and The forecast is that Chicago center Andre Drummond scores less than 9.5 points.
I am going to advance possible starting quintets, the line is influenced by a possible starting position for Andre Drummond, a pivot with great physique, good athletic ability to rebound and score near the rim. He averages 8.1 points, which is almost two points less than the line, with a balance of 36 green and 8 red when he plays 20 minutes or less. Normally he is the substitute center for Nikola Vucevic, who at this time does not appear on any injured or injured list, and his participation is reduced to playing around 15-18 minutes, so if he complies, it should not be easy for him to play. reach the line.
In front, Boston Celtics, the best team in the NBA by far, a great starting five, and a good bench. It is a team that in defense, They tend to close quite well on the inside, allowing point guards and guards to score more than allowing balls into the zone. The starting quintet should be made up of Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and at center Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis are doubts, but I highly doubt that either of them will play.
The Chicago Bulls have played some games with a double pivot, but against rivals that play with tall pivot forwards, such as the Cleveland Cavaliers with Mobley, or the Minnesota Timberwolves with Towns. I don’t think the Chicago Bulls will play with Vucevic at the 4, since against Tatum he would suffer excessively on defense, especially on drives to the basket where he has more speed being a small forward.
We remember the forecast, Andre Drummond makes less than 9.5 points at odds 1.90 on bwin.
