Pascal Siakam is coming off his best career playoff performance when he absolutely torched Milwaukee in Game 1? I think Siakam will have a difficult time replicating that performance and especially shooting 15-25 from the field. I think we see other players on the Pacers step up and this number is simply just a huge deparpture from Siakam's typical combo line which fluctuates between 31.5 and 33.5.

Perhaps Rick Carlisle will want to add Doctor Phil to his coaching staff, as the Pacers continue to exhibit bipolar tendencies. Even during the course of a single game, as Indy couldn't have played a worse first half in Sunday's Game One at Milwaukee before making a mild comeback in the second half. Back-and-forth has been the pattern for Indiana, as was success vs the Bucks, whom the Pacers beat 4 of 5 during the regular season. Expect Pascal Siakam (36 points on Sunday) to get more help in Game Two, and adjustments limited the damage caused by the Bucks' Dame Lillard after he scored 35 in the first half. Giannis remains doubtful, and unlikely Milwaukee repeats its sizzling first half from Sunday. Play Pacers

Look for the Pacers to respond in game two tonight in Milwaukee. As poor of a first half as the Pacers played they fought back to cut the deficit to just twelve points. They held Damian Lillard scoreless in the second half, and Milwaukee to just forty points post half time. Look for Indiana to shoot much better from the field and not be held under 100 points again. Take Indiana.

Doc Rivers loves Patrick Beverley. He coached him during his time with the Clippers and was likely a key driving force behind the Bucks acquiring him at the trade deadline this season. As the playoffs approached, Rivers moved Beverley into the starting lineup. He started each of his last six games during the regular season, recording at least 10 combined rebounds and assists in four of those games. He then logged 37 minutes in Game 1 against the Pacers on Sunday, finishing with seven rebounds and eight assists. With plenty of minutes likely coming his way again, take the over for him with this prop.
