At 8 eastern the NBA Game 2 Power system play is on Boston. The Celtics escaped with an Over time win on Tuesday in a game they had less than a 3% chance to win late in the game. That is a big let down for a Pacers team that shot over 65% in a game 7 win over NY then defied the odds by nearly pulling the game 1 upset. Now, however the let down appears imminent. Playoff road dogs off a road dog loss that had 8 or more turnovers and have less than 3 days rest are 0-6 straight up and to the spread since 2000 if they shot more than 50% in back to back games. In fact home tams in game 2 of the 3rd round are 64-29 on the blind. Look for Boston to get the cover here.
SU: 0-6
ATS: 0-6-0
