Premium Pick

Indiana flat-out choked in Game 1 and lost in overtime 133-128, but the Pacers know they can play with this team and the Celtics were fortunate to come out with a victory. The Pacers will learn from that experience and they are 10-3-1 ATS their past 14 playoff games as underdogs of 5.0-10.5 points and Boston is 0-4 ATS following a win. Indiana is 18-7-2 ATS following a loss ans 11-4-1 ATS against opponents with .600 winning percentages. The Celtics have covered the spread just once their past five games and that was against an injury-depleted Cleveland squad. The Pacers will be more determined to eliminate mistakes while Boston is in a letdown spot. Take the Pacers.
