The Boston Celtics (3-1, No. 7 in the Dunkel Index) are finding life post-Kyrie Irving to their liking so far as they've won three of their first four, including a come-from-behind victory over Milwaukee on Wednesday. Irving's replacement, Kemba Walker, led the way with 32 points and is averaging 24.5 ppg on the young season. Tonight, the Celtics will try to avoid a letdown as they host the New York Knicks (1-4, No. 30), who are coming off a 95-83 loss to Orlando after shooting just 1 for 11 over the final eight minutes. Tip off is 7:30 p.m. at TD Garden. To get Dunkel's pick for this game and the full NBA schedule, click HERE.
The New Jersey Devils (2-5-3, No. 30 in the Dunkel Index) slow start drew boos from the home crowd on Wednesday after they blew a two-goal lead and ended up losing to Tampa Bay in overtime, 7-6. For the Devils, it was the first time since 1990 that they had scored six goals in a game and still lost. Tonight, New Jersey will face another team looking to bounce back from a bad loss as they host the Philadelphia Flyers (5-5-1, No. 26), who were dominated by Pittsburgh, 7-1, on Tuesday. Face off is 7:00 p.m. EST at Prudential Center. To get Dunkel's pick for this game and the full NHL slate, click HERE.
