Mavericks at Celtics: Boston's 5-0 Home Run Meets Dallas

Boston is 10-2 and leads the Atlantic Division. The Celtics have won their last five games and are 5-0 at TD Garden. Dallas arrives at 7-6, 10th in the Western Conference, and is 2-4 on the road.

The Mavericks have found some form, going WWW in their last three after losing two straight. They also play on a back-to-back, which is a real hurdle against a team this settled at home. The season series starts with this game on 11/15.

Chirp's Sim (10,000 simulations) likes Boston at 81%, with Dallas at 19%. The back-to-back and the gap in recent form drive that lean. The most likely final in the Sim is Celtics 120, Mavericks 107.
