Indiana at Portland

Premium Pick

The Indiana Pacers have one goal in mind. They are going to push the ball and take the first decent look they get, and out-score their opponent. They have had success with this formula as they are averaging over 125ppg. The problem is the defense doesn't exist as they are allowing better than 123ppg on the other end. Indiana dropped their game at home vs. Portland as a 12 point favorite. Portland is improving slowly, and they have snuck up on the betting public as they are now 5-0 ATS in their last five games as a home dog, and have three outright wins to show for it. I like Portland in this one.

1.5 units on Portland +5.5 (-110) (risk 1.5 to return 2.86)
