Denver Nuggets vs Boston Celtics Prediction: Boston will be as focused as possible

Prediction for the NBA Denver Nuggets vs Boston Celtics match which will take place on March 8th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Denver Nuggets

In the previous game, the Nuggets hosted Phoenix, who was playing without Devin Booker due to injury. Denver underestimated their opponent and unexpectedly lost 107:117 (102:102) in overtime. It should be noted that Denver's leaders played a quality game. Nikola Jokic scored 25 points and grabbed 16 rebounds, while Jamal Murray had 28 points and 9 assists.

The loss to the Suns snapped Denver's six-game winning streak. Michael Malone's team is third in the Western Conference standings but just 1.0 wins out of first place.

Boston Celtics

Coming off a 140:88 win over Golden State, Joe Mazzulla's team's 11th straight victory, the Celtics traveled to Cleveland. Boston led by as many as 22 points early in the fourth quarter. However, the Celtics seemed to be getting ready for a game against Denver too early and wasted the lead, eventually losing 104:105.

Boston's winning streak was broken in a ridiculous way, but nothing terrible happened for the Celtics, who still have a stable lead in the Eastern Conference.

Expert Betting Tips

The first meeting between the rivals occurred at TD Garden in January—102:100 in favor of Denver. However, the teams shot very low percentages in the long-range, and this time, there is a probability that they will be more successful. Boston can win, even in the season series with the Nuggets. Strange as it may seem, the failure in the fourth quarter of the previous game against Cleveland may positively affect the Celtics. Now, Boston will be as focused as possible.
