Monday night takes us to Dallas where two of the top teams in the NBA will face off for the first of two times this season. as the Boston Celtics are enjoying a road trip in the Lonestar state and they will look to grab a second consecutive victory with a quality performance here on Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks. Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks will be looking to slow down one of the best teams in the NBA this season and pick up a huge momentum, boosting victory heading into the end of January. This should be one of the best games of a solid Monday night in the NBA as two of the top teams in the league are set to do battle here in this one.
The Boston Celtics have been incredible this season, and they have firmly established themselves as an NBA championship contender with their performance. They will look to pick up a quality victory over a playoff team in the Western Conference here on Monday night on the road in Dallas as they look for a second consecutive victory against a team from the state of Texas. The Boston Celtics have been incredible at home this season and they’ve been solid on the road as well and they will look to pick up a quality victory on the road here in this one. Jayson Tatum has been leading the way for the Boston Celtics as he has been one of the best players in the NBA this season and he will look to post another quality performance opposite of Luka Dončić here on Monday night at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas.
After picking up their first loss at home this season of the Denver Nuggets, Boston bounced back in a huge way with a solid victory over the Houston Rockets on the road and now they will look to continue their road trip with another quality performance against the Dallas Mavericks. The Boston Celtics come into this game with 33 victories through their first 43 games of the regular season as they easily have the best record in the NBA this year and they should be considered one of the favorites to bring home the NBA championship throughout the first half of the season. As long as they can maintain the pace, they are at right now they should go into the postseason with the number one seed in the conference, and the top overall record in the league, which would give them home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.

The Dallas Mavericks have put together a solid first half of the regular season, and they will look to keep the momentum rolling throughout this game on Monday night at home against the Boston Celtics. Dallas has proven themselves to be a legitimate contender for the postseason this year as long as they can remain healthy and consistent throughout the remainder of the regular season. The Dallas Mavericks come into this game with 24 victories through their first 42 games of the regular season as they are hovering a bit closer to .500 than people would’ve expected, but they have still put together quality performances.
Dallas will look to get back into the win column after falling to the Los Angeles Lakers in their previous game, as they looked to bounce back and pick up their 25th victory of the regular season to kick off the last week of January. With the season going by at such a fast pace before we know it, the postseason will be here and with the way Dallas looks right now they could arguably be a bottom four seed in the Western Conference, unless they pick things up throughout the second half of the regular season. It has been a rough month for the Dallas Mavericks, but they have a huge opportunity to get things going in the right direction with a solid victory here on Monday night at home against the Boston Celtics.

I expect this to be a close and competitive game in Dallas on Monday night, but in the end I do look for the Boston Celtics to pick up the victory on the road over the Dallas Mavericks. With the way, Boston has been playing this season there’s not many teams in the NBA they can stop them and I don’t look for Dallas to get the job done here in this one despite playing in front of their home fans. As I look for the Boston Celtics to pick up a close competitive victory here on Monday night and cover the four-point spread in the process.
