The Cleveland Cavaliers now are an up-tempo team under the direction of new coach Tyronn Lue, and it's paying dividends as they have won four in a row, including 117-103 over San Antonio on Saturday. LeBron James scored 29 points against the Spurs while Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving finished with 21 points apiece. The Cavs shot 54.9 percent from the field and outrebounded the Spurs 43-32. Indiana comes off an overtime win against Denver on Saturday as Monta Ellis led the Pacers with 32 points. Indiana benefitted from the fact the Nuggets made just four of 18 three-point attempts. It was the second win in a row for the Pacers after losing seven out of eight games, and they're just 2-7 ATS their last nine games. Cleveland is 3-0-1 ATS its last four road games, and the Pacers are 0-5 ATS after scoring 100-plus points. Also, the Cavaliers are 10-2 ATS their last 12 games against winning teams, Indiana is 1-4 ATS on one day of rest, and it's coming off an overtime contest. These teams have gone UNDER six of the last eight games in Indiana, and the posted total is higher because of Cleveland's new offense. Play the Cavaliers and the UNDER.
