Indiana Pacers vs Boston Celtics Prediction & Picks - NBA

Prediction published on 5/21/24, 2:39 AM by Stephen Abiola | Modified on 5/21/24 at 5:39 AM in NBA Picks

After edging past the Knicks 4-3 in the Eastern semifinals, Indiana Pacers now have a tough NBA Finals date with the Celtics. The Pacers shook off a 3-3 tie to blow out the Knicks 109-130 in the last game. In this game, six players registered double figures, led by Tyrese Haliburton, who scored 26 points and assisted 6. Although it’s a relatively young squad, they have veterans like Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner to get them far in this competition. The Celtics, on the other hand, are among the favorites to lift the Championship this season. They’ll be well-rested after eliminating the Cavaliers in Round 2 on May 15. Boston recovered from a surprising Game 2 loss to take two straight wins and dump the Cavs out of the competition. Impressively, they posted double-digit wins in three of their four wins against the Cavs. Boston and Indiana met five times in the regular season, with the Cs winning three matches.

Our Indiana Pacers vs Boston Celtics Prediction

Bookmakers are convinced that Boston will take Game 1 of this best-of-seven series, listing them as the 10-point favorites. They have yet to lose their first match in this tournament, which looks unlikely on Tuesday night. However, the Celtics aren’t invincible. In their matchups against the Heat and the Cavs, they didn’t exploit their home-court advantage after losing Game 2 in both series. But all things considered, it’s hard to see the inconsistent Pacers getting results in Game 1 in Boston. Our prediction for the Celtics vs the Pacers: Boston to cover a -10 spread.

Prediction:

Boston to cover a -10 spread

Odds : -111
