Final
LA Lakers vs IND Pacers – 1.30am GMT
Our Picks:
Pacers ML @33/20
Pacers +4.0 @10/11
So were going against Lebron and it may be unpopular but lets be real, this Pacers team gets up and down the floor and scores in transition easily. We expect an absolute great and entertaining game tomorrow!
Lakers rank 4th worst in Catch and Shoot 3PA Allowed and 2nd worst in WIDE OPEN 3s allowed. They are especially gonna throw doubles at Hali leaving the pacers elite shooters open. The pacers are 6th in 3 point percent this season. The fast pace of pacers will be too much for the Lakers defense to handle and the pacers will make it rain from 3.
On the defensive side, they matchup okay against Lakers. We have seen Nesmith be a great defender against forwards this season and was actually able to make it tough for Giannis even though he still dropped 30+. Were expecting Nesmith to make it tough on Bron. We are not gonna ignore the fact that the Pacers are horrendous at defending the paint, but overall 3’s are better than 2’s.
Player Prop:
Tyrese Haliburton – Over 41.5 points+assists @4/6
Hali has actually already come pretty close to this total in the two games he’s played against the Lakers as a number of the Pacers, 38 in each game. The Lakers this year are allowing the 8th most points to PGs while being average in assists allowed to the position. Given that Hali is playing at whole different level this year, We like him to eclipse this today.
