Bet on Celtics vs. Thunder

The Celtics have surprised plenty of people by their resiliency after the devastating broken ankle suffered by Gordon Hayward in the season opener. But winning streaks have to stop somewhere and they are going up against an OKC squad that seems to really be gelling after some initial time for players to get used to each other the new-look roster. This seems like it could be a statement game on ESPN for the Thunder as they want to prove they are right up there with the best teams in the NBA.
