The Nets let us down the previous game against the Pacers, yet, if this team is to have any chance in the playoffs and in advancing, this is a must win game for them. They were horrendous from beyond the arc (1 for 15) which killed them. If they drop this game, they face a near impossible feat of winning two in Indiana in elimination games. First round home teams that drop game one are about 75% ATS in the next game - even to a large spread like this one. The Pacers are 2-10-1 ATS in their last 13 following a SU win and the Nets are 7-2 in their last 9 following a ATS loss. Indiana has to subconciously be letting down here as they have accomplished their primary goal in New Jersey - steal one. New Jersey comes out fired up here and rolls to an easy victory and covers the spread.
