The Blazers are just happy the Celtics aren't bringing a losing streak into the Rose Garden after they took out their frustrations on the Kings in a 108-63 win on Sunday. The Celtics limited the Kings to 27.9 percent from the field, their best such performance since holding Philadelphia to 27.0 percent on March 28, 2004.

Portland is very aware just how good the Celtics are defensively. The Blazers' second-lowest point total of the season came at Boston in a 93-78 loss on Dec. 5. The Celtics had a 41-31 edge on the boards.

The Celtics have won seven straight versus the Blazers since losing in Portland on Dec. 9, 2004 and are 8-0 ATS in the last eight meetings. Get your NBA betting in the Bodog Sportsbook.
