Indiana vs. Boston - March 1, 2014 - 8:00 PM
Pick: Your pick will be graded at pinnacle @ Over 192.5 -105
Expert: Ben Burns
Evaluation: Mar 1 - 8:00 PM
Reason For Pick:
I’m playing on Indiana and Boston to finish OVER the total. These teams have met twice so far this season, once in November and once in December. Both meetings fell below the total. Both teams have been playing a lot of high-scoring games recently though and I expect a much different style of game here.
The Celtics have seen the OVER go 3-0 their last three games. Those three games had combined scores of 203, 208 and 219. They’ve now seen six straight games produce a minimum of 193 combined points, allowing triple-digits in ALL six of those games.
Like their guests, the Pacers have been involved in some shootouts recently. That’s led to the OVER going 4-0-1 their last five games. All five of those games produced a minimum of 195 combined points, while averaging 203.4.
The Pacers, who aren’t typically as stingy defensively when playing away from home, have seen the OVER go 5-2 the last seven times that they played a road game with an O/U line in the 190 to 194.5 range. I look for those stats to improve as this one proves higher-scoring than many will be expecting. 9*
