NBA Betting Picks Celtics Acquire Nate Robinson Odds - I think a lot of us saw this coming. Fact is the C's have to make a move and Nate Robinson should be a good backup to Rondo. However, if the reports are true and it means saying goodbye to Eddie House in Boston, then that is certainly a downer. NBA Odds list L.A. Lakers -3.5 favorites over Boston Thursday Night.

As the Cavaliers made a big move on Wednesday prior to Thursday’s NBA trade deadline, the Boston Celtics also made a move to bolster their run. NBA Lines & NBA Point Spread list the total Boston vs L.A. Lakers 189 points.
 
 The Celtics added guard Nate Robinson to their rotation and he should be a valuable asset for a team that was looking for a back court upgrade. Bet your NBA Picks at top sportsbooks Bodog.com and Betus.com for Thursday February 18, 2010.
 
 Robinson will not only improve their athleticism and scoring, he will also be a defensive upgrade over Eddie House, who was becoming a concern for the Celtics. The C's have other players who, if traded, would not cause me to blink (Tony Allen, Scal, Williams, etc.) but obviously you gotta give talent to get talent. I'm afraid the C's will miss House's skills from behind the arc - him and Pierce have been the most consistent from range and, unless Ray suddenly starts draining them more consistently.
