2024 NBA playoffs - Bets, lines and stats for Pacers-Celtics Game 1 - ESPN
The Eastern Conference finals begin Tuesday night, and the Boston Celtics (64-18, 43-35-4 ATS) are under immense pressure. Sure, things have gone their way throughout this year's playoffs as they avoided Jimmy Butler and Jarrett Allen, and only faced Donovan Mitchell for two games. Still, anything less than an NBA championship this year would be suboptimal for Boston, and we might see that urgency on the court tonight against an Indiana Pacers (47-35, 44-36-2 ATS) team that has exceeded expectations.
