03/17/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics are closing in on their third straight Atlantic Division title and will face another inferior opponent tonight on St. Patrick's Day against the New York Knicks at TD Garden.
Boston rebounded from a loss to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers over the weekend by routing the Detroit Pistons, 119-93, on Monday in Beantown. Paul Pierce was one of three Boston players to record at least 15 points, while Ray Allen and newcomer Michael Finley also pumped in 15 for the Celtics, who had dropped three of four games before the recent triumph and pushed their home mark to 20-12 this season.
"We were a totally different team today, came in with a lot more energy, a lot more aggressive," said Celtics center Kevin Garnett, who posted 14 points and eight rebounds. "We had five guys who were aggressive. I thought that our bench was aggressive also. We had to talk amongst each other, and we just game out and played."
Glen Davis scored 13 points in a winning effort. Boston has won six of nine contests this month and sits fourth in the conference standings, just a game behind the third-seeded Atlanta Hawks. Pierce, meanwhile, is two games shy of tying Sam Jones (871) for ninth place on the team's all-time games played list. Don Nelson is eighth at 872 games, while Larry Bird sits seventh with 897 contests played.
New York will shoot for its third straight win when it closes out a five-game road trip this evening. It improved to 2-2 on the trek following Monday's 94-84 victory at Philadelphia thanks to 21 points from Danilo Gallinari.
Toney Douglas added 20 points and seven assists for the Knicks, who were coming off Saturday's victory at Dallas that snapped the Mavs' 13-game winning streak. New York hadn't won consecutive games since a three-game streak from January 1-7.
"He's playing well, he's giving us a lot of energy," Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni said of Douglas.
The Knicks are 10-22 away from Madison Square Garden this season.
Boston and New York are playing the third of four matchups this season, as the Knicks are slated to host the Celtics on April 6. The C's have won the first two meetings and three straight overall in this series.
New York has lost six straight after winning its last two in Beantown.

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
