Boston still has trouble on defense at #24 in the NBA in points allowed, and runs into a strong Indiana defense and rebounding team. The Pacers are an excellent bounce-back team at 9-4 ATS after a loss, as well as 9-4 ATS when following a spread loss. The Pacers have scored 100 points or more in a season-best six consecutive games. Boston is getting overvalued by oddsmakers and the public, on a 2-5 spread run, plus the Celtics are 0-5 ATS when playing on one day of rest. The last three games in the series have been decided by a combined 11 points. The road team is 4-0 ATS and the underdog is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings. Take the points on the Pacers.
