Indiana Pacers Form

Indiana hold the upper-hand in the Eastern Conference Finals, having won on the road in Game 1.

It took overtime for the Pacers to get the job done, but they were able to rip away New York’s home court advantage with a 138-135 victory.

They made straightforward progress to the conference finals, winning eight of their first 10 postseason games.

Indiana beat Milwaukee 117-98 and 123-115 as they made a flying start to the first round series, only to drop their road opener 117-101.

The Pacers responded strongly though, winning 129-103 on the road and 119-118 in overtime at home to wrap up a 4-1 series success.

That set up a blockbuster semi-final showdown with Cleveland, and they made a dream start with 121-112 and 120-119 victories on the road.

Indiana dropped their opening home game of the series, 126-104, but bounced back quickly with a 129-109 win at home, before sealing a 4-1 series victory with a 114-105 win on the road.

New York Knicks Form

New York go into the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals in need of a victory.

The Knicks went into the series with Indiana with home court advantage, but threw it away in the series-opener as they were beaten 138-135 in overtime at the Garden.

They came into this series having knocked out defending champions Boston while going 8-4 to reach this stage.

New York made a mixed start to the postseason as they went 1-1 at home against Detroit, winning 123-112 and losing 100-94.

The Knicks rallied on the road though, winning 118-116 and 94-93, and then bounced back from a 108-103 defeat on the road with a series-clinching 116-113 win in Detroit.

They then made a sensational start to the semi-final series with Boston, as they beat the defending champions in back-to-back games on the road, 108-105 in overtime and 91-90 in regulation.

New York dropped their home opener 115-93, but took two of the next three to advance, sandwiching a 127-102 defeat with 121-113 and 119-81 victories.

Verdict

IND Pacers @ NY Knicks - Game 2

It is almost impossible to ignore Indiana’s spread record on the road and as an underdog.

The Pacers have repeatedly delivered with free buckets and have repeatedly covered on the road in the playoffs, so give us the visitors and the points once again.
