Surging Bucks host Allen, Celtics

Basketball Betting Lines

03/09/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sweet-stroking veteran Ray Allen has already recorded his 20,000th career point and will add to that mark tonight, when the Boston Celtics hit the road to Milwaukee for a showdown with the Bucks.

On Sunday, Allen hit a go-ahead three-pointer with 17.1 seconds left in regulation to lift the Celtics to an 86-83 comeback victory over the Washington Wizards at TD Garden. Allen ended with a game-high 25 points for Atlantic Division-leading Boston, which closed out the game on a 20-4 run in the final 6:33 of the fourth quarter for its fourth straight win.

"The bigs set great screens, and I came off," Allen said of his big shot. "I think I had more time but that's one thing about shooting the ball, I don't like sitting there on the three point line, once I come off its like the ball comes and I'm up in the air with it."

Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo chipped in 17 and 15 points, respectively, for the victors, while Kevin Garnett had eight points and 10 boards in the win.

The Celtics, seeded third in the Eastern Conference, have won two in a row away from Beantown and are 22-10 as the guest this season.

Bucks head coach Scott Skiles has his squad on the right path, as the Bucks are riding a three-game winning streak and have won nine of their last 10 games. Milwaukee opened a four-game homestand with Saturday's 92-85 victory over the LeBron James-less Cleveland Cavaliers at the Bradley Center thanks to 25 points from Brandon Jennings, who buried 5-of-7 from beyond the arc.

James was given the night off to rest a twisted right ankle and the Bucks took advantage. Carlos Delfino added 16 points and a career-high 13 rebounds, while Luc Mbah a Moute tallied 10 points and 11 boards for the Bucks, who got 15 points and nine boards from Andrew Bogut and seeded fifth in the East.

"When we had to get stops and a rebound, we did," said Skiles, who is two wins (348) away from the 350th victory of his coaching career. "We had a lot of guys chipping in."

Milwaukee's next win will match their win total from last season (34). It will also host the Jazz and Pacers on the residency and owns a 20-9 record in Wisconsin this season. The Bucks are unbeaten in their last four home games and are three wins shy of 500 at the Bradley Center. They are 11-2 at home in the new year.

Boston defeated Milwaukee, 98-89, back on December 8 this season and has won seven of eight and nine of the last 12 meetings.
