I expect the Celts to come out and take this, and Pierce and Garnett should be the main reasons why.  As I indicate, Rondo should be looking to dish a lot, and that will help his assists, while mitigating his scoring efforts.  Let&#8217;s take a look at that and the rest of the prop bets for tonight&#8217;s game&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jrue Holiday 14 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OVER.  Holiday scored 20 last game on 7 of 14 shooting and is going to look for a big game in game 7.  What worries me is that he performs poorly on two days rest, averaging only 10 ppg.  Still, I like the over here, and expect Holiday to barely beat it with 15 or 16.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre Iguodala 13 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>UNDER.  Iggy has averaged 10 ppg over his last two and has shot a dismal 7 of 21 from the floor in those two games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre Iguodala Rebs + Asts 10.5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>UNDER.  Again, Iggy has gone under the last two games, with 9 combined and 8 combined in games 5 and 6.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Evan Turner 11.5 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Staying away from this.  His average over the last two games?  11.5.  Plus, as I have said before about Turner, he is still too inconsistent to give these prop bets much value.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Louis Williams 11.5 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Staying away from this too.  He&#8217;s averaged under for the last two games, but put up 11 last game, and I think 11.5 is reasonable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Pierce 20 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OVER.  Pierce scored 24 last game and averages 22 ppg on two days rest.  He&#8217;s an older player so the two days off will make a big difference.  I think Pierce blows up tonight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kevin Garnett 18.5 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OVER.  He&#8217;s scored 20 in each of the last two games, and I expect Garnett to show up big time in this game 7.  He&#8217;s struggled in the four games he&#8217;s had two days rest in (16 ppg), but this is game 7 and it&#8217;s at home, and KG is a vet.  He&#8217;ll have a big one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rajon Rondo 14.5 pts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>UNDER.  Rondo has been under the past two games and I expect him to focus his efforts on setting up Pierce and Garnett.  I think he scores 12 or 13 tonight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rajon Rondo 13.5 asts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OVER.  For the same reason I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;ll score more than 14.5, I do think he&#8217;ll get a lot of assists tonight.  The Celts should win this, and Rondo&#8217;s scoring won&#8217;t be why, it will be his dimes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Game 7 is here, and it&#8217;s time to evaluate the prop bets.
