This is a 10* play OVER Boston-Indiana

Talk about low scoring. It doesn't get much more low scoring than what we've seen in the first two games of this Celtics-Pacers series. Boston is up 2-0 despite not scoring 100 points in either game. They've held Indiana to 74 and 91 points, really taking charge in the second half of both games. After shooting very poorly themselves in the first half of Game 1, the Celtics held the Pacers to eight points in the third quarter and went on to cruise to victory. Game 2 saw them hold Indiana without a field goal over the last five minutes. But now the Pacers are back home and we should see a pretty substantial improvement in their shooting. They are just 38.8% from the field in the series, including 31% from three-point range. For the year, they are shooting 47.8% overall and 38.1% from three at home. Boston is also a better offensive team that what they've shown so far. Only three players scored more than six points in Game 2 and you figure that has to change as well. The Pacers have had three sub-20 point quarters in the series. There will be nothing of the sort Friday as the Over is 4-1 the last five meetings in Indiana. Play OVER Boston-Indiana
