The Indiana Pacers visit the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at Moda Center at the Rose Quarter.
The Indiana Pacers visit the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at Moda Center at the Rose Quarter. The Indiana Pacers are currently in the midst of a loss for the first time in quite some time after losing again to the Utah Jazz, going 12-10 this season. It was a wire-on-wire slugfest, with the visitors giving up a season-high 139 points and suffering their fourth loss in six games. Things aren’t going to be easy for the Pacers, though, with another clash scheduled tonight in Oregon against the Portland Trail Blazers. Indiana has the rest of the advantage as the hosts just played last night, but the way the team plays these days doesn’t make them considered favorites by many.
Both teams parted ways in the season series last season. Portland leads the league with a record of 59-37 and has won seven of their last 10 games. The latest odds from the FanDuel Sportsbook gave Portland a -3.0 advantage over visiting Indiana at home. The Trail Blazers are considered favorites at -148 moneyline, while the Pacers are currently underdogs at +126 moneyline. The Pacers are characterized by a slow first-quarter start, with his double digits in each of the last six games. The Blazers’ team, led by Anfernie Simmons and Jerami Grant, can be dangerous offensively, but a series of slow starts will help reduce the chances of conceding points. But Indiana is a more rested team, and with a more sense of urgency, they should be able to get the job done.
