Season series: First meeting; Pacers won 2-1 last season

Indiana has gone 0-8-1 against the spread (ATS) over its last 9 games. It’s coming off a 122-111 loss as a 3.5-point favorite at the Toronto Raptors Tuesday with the Under (237) hitting. G Tyrese Haliburton is shooting 41.6 percent from the field and 34 percent from 3, both career-lows.

Brooklyn lost 128-102 as a 7.5-point underdog at the Chicago Bulls Monday as the Under (232) cashed. The Nets have lost 3 consecutive games straight up/ATS.

The Pacers went 2-1 ATS vs. the Nets last season, with the Over/Under (O/U) going 1-2. In the final meeting April 3, Brooklyn won 115-111 as a 7-point home underdog while the Under (233) hit. Nets G Cam Thomas scored a game-high 27 points, but will be out Wednesday with a hamstring injury.

Pacers at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 111, Nets 109

Moneyline

It pains me to lay this price with the PACERS (-140), but the Nets have lost 3 straight games by 8-plus points (after winning 3 straight Nov. 24-27). Seven of their key players are on the injury report, including 3 of their top 4 scorers.

Indiana has been even worse lately — losing its last 3 games by 11 or more points — but at least it is relatively healthy and its top 6 scoring options are expected to play. Give me the better and healthier team.

BET PACERS (-140).

Against the spread

Indiana doesn’t cover spreads; Brooklyn has too many injuries.

PASS. Bet the ML and/or total instead.

Over/Under

Brooklyn is 0-2 O/U in its last 2 games and has scored 102 or fewer points in 3 straight. I don’t expect such an injured team to score 112 or more, especially after putting up just 102 against the Bulls, who are 28th in defensive efficiency this season.

BET UNDER 225.5 (-110).

Pacers at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 117, Nets 107

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on the Pacers (-300) to beat a Nets (+240) team that is just 3-7 in its last 10 games.

Against the spread

BET PACERS -7.5 (-105).

Indiana has covered in 5 of its last 7 games including a 12.5-point cover on Monday against Brooklyn. It is 3-2 ATS in its last 5 road games and 4-2 ATS in its last 6 games as a favorite.

Brooklyn is just 3-7 ATS in its last 10 games and has failed to cover in 3 of its last 4 games and 6 of its last 8 as an underdog. It is just 1-2 ATS in its last 3 home games.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 230.5 (-110).

Indiana has hit the Over in just 4 of its last 10 games and 1 of its last 3. It has scored 109 or fewer points in 2 of its last 3 while allowing 111 or fewer in 5 of 6 of its last 10.

Brooklyn has scored 111 or fewer in 7 of its last 10 and allowed 116 or fewer in 6 of its last 10.

While Indiana is more than capable of carrying the load for the Over, Brooklyn will not score its fair share in order for that to happen.

Pacers at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 121, Nets 118

Moneyline

The PACERS (+290) are worth a look on the money line, as they try for the sweep of this 2-game set.

For a chance to triple up, Indiana is worth a shot, as it was impressive in a 125-116 win Saturday, and that was with C Myles Turner getting a rest.

The Nets haven’t played well as a team, and look a little disjointed out of the gates while playing terrible team defense. That’s not a great recipe for winning.

Against the spread

The PACERS +8.5 (-110) are a great play catching more than 4 buckets if you just aren’t feeling them straight up.

Indiana won outright as an 11-point ‘dog Saturday. The Pacers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 road games dating back to last season and 19-7 ATS in their last 26 visits to Brooklyn, too.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 237.5 (-108), but go very lightly.

The Over is 11-3 in the past 14 games overall for Indiana while cashing in 5 of its last 7 games on the road.

The Over is 5-2 in the past 7 games for Brooklyn while hitting at a 4-1 clip in its last 5 at home. The Over is also 5-1 in the past 6 meetings in this series, including Saturday’s affair.

Indiana Pacers at Brooklyn Nets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Indiana Pacers at Brooklyn Nets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Indiana Pacers (2-4) visit the Barclays Center to take on the Brooklyn Nets (1-4) Saturday. Tip is set for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Pacers vs. Nets odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Pacers are coming in off a 127-117 win as 5.5-point underdogs to the Washington Wizards. They are 1-3 on their northeast road trip, and it will come to an end with back-to-back battles against the Nets.

Indiana welcomed the return of starting C Myles Turner, who scored 27 points and had 10 rebounds Friday. The Pacers are led by G Tyrese Haliburton, who is averaging 22.6 points per game.

The Nets, on the other hand, have high expectations this season but have struggled out of the gate. Brooklyn has lost to the Grizzlies, Bucks and Mavs in its last 3 games. All the Nets’ losses are against playoff-contending sides.

Brooklyn is led by former MVP F Kevin Durant. KD has been terrific this season and is averaging a career-high 33.2 points per game and shooting 53.4% from the field.

Pacers at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 120, Pacers 112

Moneyline

PASS.

These odds are ugly. Do not play either side.

Against the spread

LEAN PACERS +10.5 (-112).

Simply put, the Nets, right now, do not deserve to be double-digit favorites over anyone. They have 1 win this season, and it was over the Raptors by 4 points.

The Pacers will be worse than any of the teams they’ve played, but G Buddy Hield, Haliburton and Turner should provide enough on both ends of the court to keep this game competitive.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 234.5 (-108).

In the non-overtime games the Nets have played, this total would have hit twice, once against the Pelicans in which Brooklyn gave up 130 and another where they allowed 134 to Memphis.

Both of those teams rank in the top 3 in offensive rating and sit No. 1 and No. 2 in offensive rebounding, the Pacers respectively are 10th and 4th. Indiana is neither New Orleans nor Memphis and should struggle to help get that high as it has gone under 110 in 3 of its 6 games this season.

While solid, it will take a mighty effort to combine to this total, and on the second night of a back-to-back, the tired legs could prevail here. The Nets rank 21st in pace as well, which won’t help their cause.

Indiana Pacers at Brooklyn Nets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Indiana Pacers at Brooklyn Nets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Indiana Pacers (1-4) travel to Barclays Center Friday to take on the Brooklyn Nets (2-3). Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Pacers at Nets odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Pacers enter their sixth game of the season with a disappointing four losses already compiled, but they’ve been mostly hard-fought games outside of their most recent 18-point defeat at the hands of the Toronto Raptors.

The Pacers are led by C Myles Turner and PF Domantas Sabonis, and start rookie G Chris Duarte.

The Nets have also disappointed to open the season as SG James Harden has been relatively non-existent. Brooklyn would also be sitting at 1-4 had it not made a fourth-quarter comeback against the Philadelphia 76ers earlier in the season.

Former MVP SF Kevin Durant and a plethora of savvy veterans lead the preseason championship favorites.

Pacers at Nets odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 112, Pacers 100

Money line

PASS on the money line.

The Nets should come out on top at home. However, they just lost by double figures to the Miami Heat and were obliterated by the Charlotte Hornets earlier in the season.

They’re not trustworthy at -450, and at +330 I don’t like the Pacers much either, especially with how many points they’re being given.

Against the spread

“LEAN” to the NETS -8.5 (-110) as the better side.

Brooklyn has been taken care of pretenders so far this season, and against an Indiana team missing its second and third-best player, I expect the Nets to have their way. The Pacers likely won’t have an answer for Durant.

The Nets have only been in one game that’s been decided by single digits, and with the Pacers taking to the road after a tough loss, I expect their train wreck of a season to continue.

Harden is just too talented to note figure things out. He should find his footing soon, and when he does, the Nets will return to being one of the most feared teams in basketball.

The Nets are 1-2 against the spread (ATS) at home but are 1-0 ATS against sub-.500 teams at home. They should blow out a short-handed Pacers squad.

Over/Under

BET on the UNDER 222.5 (-107) as the best value this game holds. The Nets have been surprisingly awful offensively this season.

The team isn’t scoring if Durant isn’t. He’s averaged 29.8 points per game and the Nets as a team still rank 28th. They haven’t shown enough to bet that they’ll go off and score 120 like last year.

The Pacers started the season red hot, scoring over 120 in each of their first two games. However, it’s been ugly since, averaging just 104 points per game despite one of the three going an extra 5 minutes.

Combine the Nets’ struggles and the Pacers’ injuries, and the Under is the best play in this game.

Pacers at Nets: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Pacers 123, Nets 120

Money line (ML)

Neither of these teams has played well recently, each losing their last three games, but the Nets’ performances are especially concerning, given their lack of defense. They were just stunned with a 122-111 loss to the worst team in the Eastern Conference, the Detroit Pistons, Tuesday night, and have allowed at least 120 points in nine of their last 10 games.

I like the PACERS (+110) and their presence in the paint to beat the Nets in a close one. Brooklyn simply doesn’t have the interior defense to slow down the likes of PF Domantas Sabonis inside.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

The Nets are a league-worst 10-16 ATS and are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games. The Pacers own the same ATS record in their last 10 games, but they’re much closer to .500 ATS for the season at 11-13.

The Nets have played down to their competition this season, and while the Pacers aren’t the Pistons, Brooklyn will have trouble.

Take the PACERS +2.5 (-115) to stay within 2 points in a loss or win outright.

Over/Under (O/U)

With one of the league’s top offenses and arguably the worst defense in the NBA, it’s no surprise the Over is 19-7 in Nets games this season. That trend will continue Wednesday against the Pacers, who are 13th in points per game and 18th in scoring defense.

The total is high, but you should still bet the OVER 234.5 (-110), as you should in every Nets game.
