Indiana Pacers vs Brooklyn Nets: Betting Odds
The Pacers are a young team with a solid backcourt of point guard Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield while having rookie Bennedict Mathurin off of the bench.
The Nets, meanwhile, are struggling, but they are getting healthy. Shooting guard Seth Curry is returning on Friday and getting more reps, while point guard Ben Simmons is improving as the season has progressed.
The combination of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant should will the Nets to more wins, as they are an incredible scoring duo but need to focus more on the defensive side of things to win.

Indiana Pacers vs Brooklyn Nets: Pick
A total 60.5 points in the first quarter can look huge, and these teams combined for 52 points in the first quarter on Friday.
However, these are two of the worst defenses, as the Nets are allowing 43.8 percent of threes against them while the Pacers are giving up 43.5 percent of shots from distance.
The two teams are also in the top ten in free throw attempts this season, so there are a lot of ways they can score the basket and get into the bonus quickly.
Pick: Total 1st Quarter Over 60.5 (-105)
Pacers vs Nets: Prediction
It seems like the Nets have hit the bottom of the barrel in terms of where they have been this season.
The Nets were unable to hit their open threes, while Indiana was hitting 50 percent of all their threes in the game (23 of 46), which is difficult to replicate. The Pacers are 3-7 against the spread in their last ten games following a win, so go with Brooklyn to get their act together here.
Prediction: Brooklyn Nets To Cover The Spread -8.5 (-110)
