Point Spread: -1.50 | -107.00 Milwaukee (Home)
Result: Win
The Indiana Pacers rallied to win on the road in Washington last night, coming back from a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to win 103-101. They had lost six straight prior to that though, and playing a second game in as many nights on the road in Milwaukee could be a tough spot for the struggling Pacers.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Home Cookin' - The Bucks have a pretty decent winning record at home (19-14), while the Pacers are just brutal on the road (13-22). Milwaukee ended a six game slid with a win over the Heat on Tuesday, and will look to build on that tonight.
2. Fatigue - This is a grueling schedule spot for the Pacers, not only playing on back-to-back nights, but also five games in six nights, with three of those games played on the road. Indiana has failed to cover the spread in four of it's last five when playing on no rest.
3. X-Factor - Michael-Carter Williams has averaged 19.8 points in his five career meetings with Indiana, and he scored 28 points with eight rebounds and four steals in the most recent meeting.
Selection: This is a play on the Milwaukee Bucks (10*)
