Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers Prediction | NBA Best Bets and Picks for Monday, January 8

Yeah Indiana they were not much of an offensive pain in the ass to Boston the other night Joe they actually recorded their second worst field goal shooting percentage of the Season 41.3 from the field and their worst three-point percentage the lowest they’ve shot all season long in any game only 19% from

Three Tyrese halberton talked about it a little bit um you know it’s the standard quote right we had a lot of looks open looks we just didn’t make them we’ll go back and watch um you know Boston’s a good defensive team blah blah blah but they are the seventh best three-point

Shooting team in the NBA so you wouldn’t expect 19% to hold up here tonight especially without Tatum defensively and for Boston it’s been back-to-back games believe it or not where they have held an opponent under 20% from three they’re good they’re not that good on the season they give up 35%

So to have two games back to back holding teams to less than 20 and those two teams being Utah and Indiana you would think that there’s a little bit of a bounceback or regression to positive three-point shooting here for Indiana who may expect Bruce Brown back here tonight that helps defensively for them

They didn’t have him last game I think without Tatum um you wonder if Indiana can’t Tempo Boston here in this game Tatum obviously a very quick up and down the floor four um now you have Horford and porzingis as your Frontline little B slower maybe the Pacers get out a little

Bit quicker and ahead of Boston offensively I think that could help when Boston did lose because they’ve won two out of three against this team when they the only time they did lose they were short-handed in that particular game they lost here in Indiana but porzingis didn’t go so they’re even more severely

Short-handed here without Tatum the Pacers had been playing great like you mentioned they were six and0 against the spread last six games until the other night so it’s not like they’ve fallen off a cliff here just by losing one game um they’re 15- seven against the spread

This season with a day of rest that makes me believe they’ll play well here I just think plus three at home you know this is probably the next step for Indiana they’ve conquered Milwaukee Boston and Milwaukee are the two teams expected to be the best in the East this

Year they’re down two one in the season series to Boston I expect to get a uh you know full 48 minutes of focus and motivation here so again when you play the Pacers you’re playing them to outscore people and I think they could possibly outscore Boston here tonight so

I’ll take the plus three
