That Boston (50-32), a team that entered the NBA playoff betting season going 3-9 in their prior 12 games, was just .500 since Christmas, and that seemed rusty in their first round basketball odds competition with lowly Miami, is now in position to sweep the Orlando Magic (59-23) in the Eastern Conference Finals betting is something that not many NBA odds makers expected. 

But no one will claim that Boston haven’t earned it. The team is fresh off an impressive win versus the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team with the top record in basketball betting (61-21), and thus far has picked up where they left off versus the Magic in the NBA betting odds action.  

The extraordinary thing about the Celtics NBA playoff betting success is less that this team is competing so well, as it’s an obviously talented roster and just two years removed from an NBA betting championship, but instead that the medium for the success is none of the team’s Big Three (Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett). The star of the Boston Celtics and the best player on this team is PG Rajon Rondo. 

Rajon Rondo went nuts in Game 2 of this NBA betting odds matchup, continuing his spate as the best player in the NBA playoff betting action this year. He ended with 25 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. He also made some valuable buckets down the stretch to seal the deal in this 95-93 nail-biter. 

However, Beantown faithful should refrain from pulling out the brooms just yet, because this basketball betting series is not finished. A 2-0 lead in an NBA betting series is a big deal, but it’s not a definite. Particularly when you’re playing against a exceedingly dangerous Orlando team. 

It’s no secret why Orlando put together the second best record in NBA betting this season and if any team is capable of doffing its way out of a 0-2 hole, it’s the Magic. 

So far the Orlando Magic have not played well, getting inadequate balance on offense and input from only a few players. The Magic’s star swingman Rashard Lewis has just 11 points in this series (5 points in Game 2), and still worse, he’s taken just 15 shots in two games. Matt Barnes has been intangible as well in this NBA playoff betting series with 8 points in two games. 

If either player reaches double digits in the next game, the Orlando Magic will win.
