Expert NBA Analysis

The latest team news and current form are always useful information when it comes to providing basketball picks. It’s also important to pay attention to the available stats so that we can make the best NBA predictions.

Key Celtics vs Pacers stats:

  • The 222.5 line hasn’t been covered in any of the last 5 Celtics games on the road.
  • The 222.5 line hasn’t been covered in 8 of the last 10 Celtics games.
  • The 222.5 line hasn’t been covered in the last 7 Celtics games on the road.
  • The 222.5 line hasn’t been covered in 4 of the last 5 Pacers games at home.
  • The 222.5 line hasn’t been covered in the last 4 Pacers games at home.

We’re not convinced these NBA opponents are cumulatively going to produce enough points in relation to the total line. Therefore, we’re aiming to go Under 222.5 at -110.

If you’re wanting to go Under a certain points total but fancy bigger odds, the Match Result & Total lines could be a good option. You need the two combinations to work in your favor.
