Indiana Pacers @ Boston Celtics 8:00pm EST

Celtics TT over 115.5 -120 (1u)

We are going back to this line once again after the Celtics cashed us out in Game 1. Yes, it did end up being sweaty, as we won on a Jaylen Brown corner three with 7 seconds left, but a win is a win nonetheless. After 3 quarters, the Celtics had 94 points and needed to score just 22 in the 4th to cash us out. They were horrendous in the 4th quarter until the very end, which ultimately made the Team Total seem much closer to the line that it should have been. Our analysis last game about the Celtics having to play fast to keep up with the blistering Pacers' offense was true. Tonight, we expect much of the same. Indiana is going to play their game no matter what. They will look for fast break points, find guys wide open for three, and hit their mid-range jumpers. The Celtics, to avoid dropping a game at home before hitting the road, will have to try and match Indiana shot for shot. This means a lot of production from Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Derrick White and even Jrue Holliday.

We anticipate this to be another high scoring game and for the Celtics to not go cold in the 4th quarter again. We would love another close game and back forth affair tonight, as the Pacers look to even the series, and the Celtics look to go up 2-0 before a road trip to Indianapolis.
