Indiana Pacers betting news and analysis

The Pacers looked to be in peak form in their 116-103 win in Game 6 but need to find a way to bring the same level of play on the road. In three games in New York, Tyrese Haliburton has averaged 17.6 points, compared to 23.3 ppg at home. 

Haliburton is not the only Pacer who plays better at home than on the road. Pascal Siakam, Indiana’s leading scorer in the post-season, has averaged 21.6 ppg at home against the Knicks but only 18.3 in Madison Square Garden. In Game 7, the Pacers need to find a way to play like they have at home, or they will see their season end.

New York Knicks betting news and analysis

The Knicks’ pattern is similar to the Pacers’, as they play much better at home. However, the biggest story for New York going into Game 7 is health. Josh Hart is dealing with an abdominal strain and played just 31 minutes in Game 6, his second-fewest of these playoffs.

There may be some good news on the horizon for the Knicks, as reports suggest OG Anunoby may play in Game 7. This would be a huge lift for New York. Before his injury, Anunoby was playing amazing, scoring 28 in Game 2 against the Pacers.

If you are looking for one player to target for a player prop bet, Jalen Brunson is a good one. We like him to go OVER 46.5 points + rebounds + assists (-110) at BetMGM.

Brunson has scored 44, 29 and 43 points in his last three home games this post-season. He also went OVER 46.5 points + rebounds + assists in two of those three, only coming up short in a game where he missed most of the first half. 

Pacers vs. Knicks Game 7 prediction: New York to cover ATS

The home team has won every game of the series, and we don’t see that stopping now. Even though the Knicks are dealing with numerous injuries, they have found a way to be competitive and stay in control of both of their post-season series so far.

If there is one difference in Game 7, it will be Jalen Brunson. The star point guard has played with an edge and has been the best player on the floor when he has been healthy. He has proven that even if he has to score 30, 40, or even 50+ points, he will do it to power the Knicks to a victory.

Prediction: Knicks -3.5
