First Half over: 111.5+ points

Description

Bet highlight:


  1. Both team shooting above the league average from 3pt - Cleveland (44%) and Indiana (40%)
  2. Indiana plays the fastest tempo basketball in the NBA while Cleveland shoots often from the 3pt with excellent precision
  3. Allen, Mobley or Mitchell will be hard to stop.


Full analysis:

In the second round of East play-offs there will be clash between Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers. Both teams are looking especially offensively good, the 3pt is working for both of them and with the frequent amount it should definitely increase the total score in the half. Also Cleveland plays almost pixel perfect ofense with well rounded tactics and overall this team look dangerous and I think it will be hard task to stop them and Pacers wont figure it out in one game and for us in one half. On the other hand, Pacers might not add up that many points since Cavaliers defense is known to be tough and hard to score with their big mens - Allen and Mobley can guard the paint so they might rely on 3pt - (Haliburton, Nembhard, Turner or Nesmith) which was working, so still they had good offense going in the series against Bucks even though Cavaliers defense is a bit higher in my tierlist still I wouldnt count them out with the fast breaks or many attempts since their tempo is unstoppable, they are not tired in the first half at all in the matches which I have seen. Good luck!
