Points Leads Indiana In Start

Basketball Betting Lines

Monta Ellis scored just four points, 19 below his season average, but dished out 12 assists in the victory.

 

"Monta did a great job of getting in the seams understanding he didn't have it offensively, meaning scoring, and the great players figure out how to impact a game even though they are not able to do what they do best," Warriors head coach Mark Jackson said.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers try to follow up their biggest win of the season tonight when they head to Boston to face the Celtics at TD Garden. Indiana picked up a big win over the Eastern Conference-leading Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, as Danny Granger had 22 points, Roy Hibbert scored 20 to help the Pacers to a 95-90 win, their first victory in the Windy City in almost four years.

 

The Pacers snapped a six-game road losing streak against the Bulls, winning in Chicago for the first time since March 22, 2008.

 

The win over the Bulls was even more impressive considering just one night earlier Indiana suffered an embarrassing 19-point loss at home to the Orlando Magic.

 

Boston, meanwhile, rallied to beat the Magic on Thursday, as Paul Pierce led five players in double-figures to help the Celtics erase a 21-point halftime in a 91-83 win.

 

Boston has won three straight and four of five.

 

Indiana has beaten the Celtics twice already this season and has won three straight in the series after losing five in a row to Boston. The Celtics have also lost four of six as the visitor in this matchup.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - For three quarters last night it appeared the Orlando Magic had erased all the memories of their worst shooting performance in franchise history in a rematch with the Boston Celtics. But a lousy final period sent the Magic back into the loss column, where they have been three times in the last five games. Orlando hopes its recent trend of alternating wins and losses goes back into its favor Friday in the Big Easy against the New Orleans Hornets.
