The Pacers have split the last four meetings with the Celtics but have covered in all four contests, with the latest being Boston’s 142-138 overtime victory. However, Indiana got the cover as 7 ½ point home dogs. Speaking of the Pacers, they secured a 118-114 win over the Raptors in their latest performance on Wednesday night, shooting 55.8 percent from the floor.
The Celtics have won three of their last four games including a 132-109 blowout of the Kings on Wednesday. And while the C’s are a superior team to the Pacers, their defense has fallen off since their torrid start to the season, and I believe the oddsmakers are giving Indiana too many points in this one.
The Pacers always seem to hang within the margins when they battle Boston and I don’t believe Friday night will be any different. Let’s grab the points with the road pup in this one.
