(NBA) Milwaukee vs. Indiana,
Point Spread: -6.00 | -110.00 Indiana (Home)
Result: Loss
The Pacers are coming into this game off of a 125-108 win in their last game which evened up this series 1-1. The Pacers lost game 1 of this series 109-94 and the game was not as close as the score suggests as the Pacers were down by 20+ points that whole game. The Pacers responded in game 2 though and they are going to carry over the momentum from that win into this 1st game at home. The Pacers were dominant against the Bucks this season as they were 4-1 against them during the regular season and a lot of those wins were games that Giannis was playing in while the Pacers did not even have Siakam yet. The Pacers have done nothing but improve since acquiring Siakam and he has been the driving force for the Pacers in the 2 games of this series. The Bucks cannot handle the pace that the Pacers play at and being without Giannis in this game is only going to hurt them more. Siakam has the playoff experience to help guide this young team through this series and the Pacers won the last meeting against the Bucks at home by 12 points. The Bucks have also been much worse on the road this season in general at 18-22 on the road. The Pacers were also a much better team at home at 26-15 this season and they are going to take a 2-1 series lead in this game with another dominant performance here at home as they have been dominating the Bucks all season. The Pacers will cover the spread in this game.
