Trail Blazers at Pacers picks and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 121, Trail Blazers 118

Moneyline

LEAN PACERS (-125).

While I don’t love the value, Indiana has three 1-point wins this season, so this is the more comfortable side given the tight spread. The Pacers are 13-7 straight up — and have won 4 straight — at home.

Portland is 10-12 on the road and hasn’t been playing its best basketball as of late. The presence of Pacers shot-blocking C Myles Turner should give fits to the Blazers’ top-scoring options, G Damian Lillard and Grant, the latter of which may not play.

Considering the recent trends for both teams, back the PACERS (-125) to win here.

Against the spread

PASS.

Take the juice and play Indiana to win outright.

Over/Under

BET OVER 235.5 (-108).

The Pacers rank 8th in pace, and although Portland sits 25th, on the road, it may lean towards a more Indiana-style game.

The Blazers have 3 players all averaging over 22 points per game, so the scoring options are there. The Pacers have gone Over the projected total in 5 straight games and have scored more than 120 points in all 5.

These teams rank 26th (Indiana) and 17th (Portland) in opponents’ 3-point shooting percentage, so both are strong offensively yet aren’t terrific at defending the 3, a recipe for points to come in bunches.

Back the OVER 235.5 (-108).
