Tonight's game has a nine point spread which scares me. I like the first quarter market here because I have a feeling we could see Boston have a better game than they did in Game 1. Regardless, this number feels light and could hit with one field goal attempt.
INDIANA PACERS VS. BOSTON CELTICS GAME 2 PREDICTION
In Game 1, we saw Al Horford shoot the ball five times in the opening quarter. Four of his five shot attempts came from the three point line, we just need one to go in. Horford has attempted 12 and 13 three point attempts in his last two games so he is certainly not shy to let it fly.
Indiana will gladly allow Horford to beat them instead of Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown so I think Al should see some open looks. Horford has hit this prop in four of his last five games and was two for two in the regular season against Indiana.
This is my favorite play for tonight and if he hits a three and cashes us with one shot that will be a fun one to celebrate. Let's roll!
