00:00 Boston has been at least a 7.5 point favorite in all 10 of
00:06 their playoff contests. Tonight, it's 10 to double
00:10 digits in favor of the Seas with a total at 221 and a half.
00:15 What do the numbers DRS as we see them pregame tell you about
00:18 what we can expect for the opening game of the Eastern
00:21 Conference Finals? I think we get points and also it's
00:24 telling you that this is supposed to be an easy Celtics
00:27 victory. Now also in the past game one in the Celtics
00:30 building in round number one game one in the Celtics
00:32 building in round number two had been nice victories for
00:34 the Boston Celtics. It's game number two Ben that maybe we
00:37 should be watching out, but this is always a tricky
00:39 environment because we know the Boston Celtics will be
00:42 rested and ready, but what are we actually getting out of the
00:44 Pacers two things can happen in this environment, which is
00:46 always tough to work and these aren't X's and O's, but we
00:49 don't know officially how the Pacers are going to come out in
00:52 this game. Are they getting that game seven jump excited
00:56 got that victory momentum is on their side as they go in and
00:58 try to upset the Celtics in round number one or is it who
01:02 man that was a nice little comeback to finally beat the
01:04 Knicks in an exciting energized environment in Madison Square
01:07 Garden. And now we gotta stay on the road here and take on
01:10 the Boston Celtics because that could mean a fifteen to
01:12 twenty point blowout or the Pacers get that bump. That's
01:15 why I'm staying away here from the side itself. But the one
01:18 thing I do know the Pacers can score. They don't play any
01:20 defense. The Celtics can score. We'll see what their defense
01:23 has. But as you pointed out earlier in the show that 115, I
01:26 guess around that price point here of the team total for the
01:29 Celtics. That's really what I like the best year, but also I
01:32 do think the Pacers will be able to score and I like the
01:34 over 221 here and also gets back to the point that I make
01:37 so many times overs for me earlier in series unders as the
01:41 series gets underway.
01:44 (upbeat music)
