First Half over: 109.5+ points
Description
Bet highlight:
- Both teams (but especially Pacers) playing high tempo basketball with 25+- attemps in the first and second quarter
- Three point worked out for Indiana whole game(52%) but on the other hand Cavaliers might have struggled yet it looked like an anomaly and that might not happen again (5/20 First Half)
- Cavaliers might be without Mobley (ankle) and Hunter (thumb) so the scoring gets a hit for Cavaliers if they wont be available, but Pacers could benefit from that on offensive side
Full analysis:
In the second round of Eastern Conference 2025 NBA Play-off there will be second match at homecourt for Cleveland Cavaliers and their opponents Indiana Pacers. For us it will be important only what will happen in the first half of next match and what happened in the previous one in the first half. So lets take a look: Cavaliers could get the drives to the baskets and easy finishes with Allen, Mobley or by creative Mitchell but their 3pters couldnt connect at all so there is still potential to improve while they are good shooting team from long distance and 25% is definitely below their averages! On the other hand Pacers were dominant from long distance and couldnt almost miss this trend aint sustainable for the whole series so there might be a small downfall but Cavaliers should improve and not struggle like they did as it gets even in the end. Add to our prediction, both teams are playing heavy tempo basketball, there is a lot of attempts with quality 2pt shooting. Good luck!
