rating (points, neutral field)
56-26
record (2025)
+2.1
vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
Boston grades out at 8.412 points better than an average team on a neutral field, sixth in the league, and that's already up sharply from a 5.465 prior-season rating, so this is a real step forward rather than noise. The 2.08 points of market value against the number says the books have been slow to price that jump, which makes Boston a buy at current spreads. With no key players unavailable and a strength of schedule of 1.298, the rating is earned against live competition, so lay the points with confidence.
