NBA Finals 2010: Celtics vs. Lakers Game 1 NBA Odds: A rematch of the 2008 NBA Finals will take center stage tonight when the L.A Lakers look to gain some payback against their conquers the Boston Celtics. The Celtics will find themselves in a familiar underdog role to win the NBA Championship with L.A listed at -175 on the series NBA odds. Boston (62-37) has overcome a treacherous road to the 2010 NBA Finals but can they knock off the mighty Lakers (69-29) for the second time in three years for the title? Below is a winning free sports picks play from our NBA Finals picks staff.
 

The Celtics vs. Lakers Game 1 NBA Odds have Los Angeles at -5.5 on the NBA point spread at SPORTSBETTING.COM.

2010 NBA Finals Analysis: When these two teams met in the regular season they split a game apiece with a dead even 0.0 points per game differential. On paper the Lakers have more length and ability with Kobe and crew but the Celtics are a bad match-up for the Lakers. With sizeable advantages off the bench and on defense the Celtics give Los Angeles headaches whenever they play. Boston PG Rajon Rondo will have to be accounted for and he is playing at a higher level than he was when L.A last encountered him in an 86-87 loss as -2.5 home favorites. The Celtics vs. Lakers Game 1 NBA Odds TOTAL is at 191.5 points.

The Celtics have proven that they can play excellent ball on the road and this NBA point spread is fat for game 1. Boston F Paul Pierce loves playing in Los Angeles where he grew up and Boston got some much needed rest heading into the finalsd.  Back Boston with their stingy defense to cover the NBA point spread for 1 UNIT.
