1.88Tip and bets
Chicago is fighting for a place in the playoffs again, but without key players, the Bulls are unlikely to be able to jump over their heads. Indiana is much more stable, and Haliburton's return will only strengthen the team. In this scenario, the guests must take the victory.
Our prediction is that Indiana will win by a handicap of (-3.5) points in 1.78
Betting on an individual total
The Pacers are averaging 116.1 points per game, and 114.9 on the road. Given that Chicago has little defense in the paint without Vucevic, the visitors will surely take advantage of this.
Our prediction is that Indiana's individual total is over 122.5 points in 2.03
Bet on the first half
Indiana likes to get off to a fast start. In four of the last six face-to-face meetings with the Bulls, the Pacers have won the first half. We expect that this time Carlisle will set the team up for a brisk pace from the first minutes.
Our prediction is that Indiana will win in the first half in 1.66
