The last time the Pacers saw Cleveland they upset the Cavs in Indiana by a score of 93-86, and that sparked a seven game win streak. They've since lost three straight, but they might be catching the Cavs at a good time. The Cavs have been steamrolling teams, but because of that they are asked to cover quite a significant number here at home against a team that has given them troubles this season.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Pacers have won two of three outright versus Cleveland this season, and they've won eight of the last meetings in this series dating back to 2012.

2. LeBron James - LeBron had a real stinker of a game against the Nets, hitting just 5-of-13 from the field for 16 points. He might improve on those numbers tonight, but I wouldn't expect points to come too easy against the Pacers #3 ranked scoring defense that allows opponents to average just 96.4 points per game.

3. X-Factor - The Pacers have been a good bet when coming off a loss, they are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a S.U. loss.

Selection: This is a play on the Indiana Pacers (8*)
