Indiana at Cleveland

Premium Pick

The Cleveland Cavaliers are suffering from the loss of LeBron James. The Cavaliers were 26-14 at this time a year ago and are currently 8-32. The losing streak has reached nine games. Indiana is 26-13 on the season but has been streaky. They rattle off several wins and then suddenly when they lose, they tend to lose again. The last five Pacers' losses have been followed by another loss four of the last five times, and with a poor Cleveland team tonight, expect a lackluster effort which has been their pattern this season. The Pacers have been an UNDER team for the most part this season at 22-15 on the season to the UNDER. The last meeting between these clubs this season produced just 183 combined points. I'm looking for something similar here again tonight as the Cavs almost pulled the upset in that one, losing by a single point. Take both Cleveland and the UNDER in this one.
