Pacers Vs Mavericks Preview

The Indiana Pacer travel to the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas to take on the Mavericks Tuesday Night. The Pacers will look to improve their 9-20 road record and try to get back into the NBA Playoff picture.
Dallas comes into this game with a 32-30 record and currently sits just 5.5 games behind Memphis for the Southwest Division lead. Dallas will most certainly look for another big night out of Luka Don?i? who leads the NBA averaging 33.1 points per game.
Injuries don’t look to be much of an issue in this game, as the Pacers have no players listed on the injury report. Dallas however has two players list with Maxi Kleber: out (hamstring), and Davis Bertans: out (calf). Dallas should be able to easily overcome both these injuries, and it should not affect their performance on the court.

Team Leaders

Dallas is clearly the better team, but has not played well over their last 5 games, blowing a 20 point lead to the Lakers the last time they were on the Court. They look to get back on track, playing a Pacer team that has a horrible road record. I would normally say 7.5 points is a lot to give in any basketball games, but the best bet here is to take Dallas to cover and give up the 7.5 Points.

With the Money Line odds being at -320 I would stay away from this bet. The Odds are just too low for a decent return on your risk. Dallas should clearly win this game, and the Odds show that.

Pacers Vs Heat Over Under (236)

With the Over/under being at 236 I'm going to shy away from this bet as well for this game. 236 is a risky bet, as a good shooting night out of either team could easily exceed 235 combined points. If I was inclined to bet this over under, I think the best bet here is to bet the under. Looking at the point totals for both teams in their last 5 matchups, and analyzing it from a points' perspective, the numbers tell us the winning team will probably score less than 115.
