If HOU visited BOS today, our model would lean Boston Celtics with a 65.4% win probability. That reflects a season-long net rating edge of +4.8 points for BOS at home (plus ELO, rest, and recent form factored in).

Hypothetical matchup — these teams aren't scheduled to play. The model updates daily as ratings and ELO move.
