ind @ orl - I'd hate to fade the Pacers right now even if this is their 4th game in 5 nights... Due to both of these reasons (not wanting to bet against a very hot team..  and not wanting to bet on them since this is their 4th game in 5 nights) .. I am probably going to pass on this side..  I do have a strong lean for UNDER 186.5.  Pacers have been an under machine this year.. The only thing that scares me is the fact that Orlando doesn't play defense.

bkn @ atl - Another hot team that is playing B2B and is up against a Hawks team coming off a terrible offensive performance against the Bulls.. scoring only 58 points.  Atlanta is 12-6 at home, is rested, and has to be embarrassed by their last game.  The public should be backing Brooklyn as they have been on fire.  I'd watch this spread today..  if public wagers start coming in on the Nets and the line doesn't adjust.. i'd hammer Atlanta.  All teams cool off eventually & Atlanta owns their home court.  Current lean would be the Hawks -4.5..  but I think the line may come down a bit..  

was @ sac - Strong lean on Sac -4.5.  The Wizards are 1-15 on the road.. and the Kings have got 11 of their 14 wins at home.  Wizards are coming off a big win against Orlando..  and Okafor was an absolute BEAST in that game.. 19pts on 62% shooting and 11 rebounds.  Also note Big baby Davis was out this game.. as was E'Twaun Moore.  

 

The Hornets are coming off a big win last night against the 76ers (111-99).. while Boston had the night off.  

How can anyone fade this Celtics team right now?  Boston is 6-0 SU and 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games.  During this run they have beat the Pacers, Hawks, Knicks, and Houston.  

Also, Doc Rivers will be facing his sons (Austin Rivers) team..  Do you really think Doc wants to lose to his son?  Or even keep the game close?  

Prediction:  104 - 89 Celtics 

All around all stars (James, Wade, Bosh, Allen.. etc) against an up tempo team w/ lights out shooters (Curry, Lee, and Thompson).  

Miami, especially D Wade, should be well rested, and ready for an up tempo type of game.  I think we see high percentage shots taken and points will be scored.  

Prediction:  Both teams land in the 100's...  108 - 104 type of game.  

Yup, decided to fade this hot Pacers team tonight.  Pacer's are playing their 4th game in 5 nights and are coming off a dominating performance.  Orlando has really been the exact opposite..  injury issues.. and they hold a 13-24 record.  The public has absolutely hammered Indiana.. on various sites I see public bets from 70% to 90% on the Pacers and the line has sat at +1.5 all day (for me at least).  The other thing that really sticks out is Orlando's win at LAC.. 104 - 101 on the 12th...  This team is capable, rested, and face a team that should be tired.  IMO, I can't see the Pacers playing solid defense the entire game, they will get tired, and Orlando should capitalize.
