Cavaliers/Pacers clash set for Thursday
The Pacers have a chance to close the gap on the Cavaliers in the Central Thursday when the teams hit the floor running at Conseco Fieldhouse.
The Pacers play into revenge Thursday, after handing Cleveland a 98-77 defeat in the last meeting back on April 6, 2005.
The Pacers are favored, opening as 3.5-point chalk, with an opening total of 200. They are 6-3 this season and 5-4-0 OU. The Cavaliers are 9-2 and are 5-3 OU.
Mike Brown's team hopes to build upon an 115-93 win over Celtics. They were 10.5 point favorites in a game that went over the total
Rick Carlisle's troops were at home against the Rockets last game and came away with an 85-74 win, a game that went under 176. Oddsmakers had them as 8-point favorites in that one.
This game is likely to come down to the Cavaliers's execution on offence. They rank 1st in the league in scoring and look to sustain their 105.4 points per game average against the Pacers's #16-rated defensive unit.
