- ASA NBA play on UNDER 249 Indiana Pacers at Chicago Bulls, 8:10pm ET - This is one of the highest totals on the board today and we like the value after the move with the UNDER. The Bulls have some controversy surrounding them with the recent release of Jaden Ivey after his religious comments and the NBA. The NBA ratings and popularity continue to plummet with the failed leadership and their policies. I wonder if the NBA would have allowed the Spurs to waive Wemby or another superstar had they made those comments. In any regard, that certainly has to be a distraction for players on the Bulls roster heading into tonight’s game. The meat of this handicap is simple. We have two teams that play fast and don’t play defense, but both rank 23rd or worse in offensive efficiency ratings (Pacers 27th, Bulls 24th). The Pacers rank 27th in overall FG%, 19th in 3PT% and are coming off an unusually great shooting games against the Heat when they hit 53/92 FGA’s (58%) and 18/39 3’s (46%) and we don’t see them duplicating that two games in a row. Chicago is trending the wrong direction with their shooting at 34.4% from Deep (23rd) and 47.3% overall from the field which ranks 19th in the NBA over the past 5 games. The value in the number is key here as the last two games between these two teams had O/U’s of 234.5 and 235.5 and the two games finished with 223 and 225 total points. In fact, all 3 meetings this season have stayed UNDER as have 6 straight in the series. Our model projects 235.3 total points being scored. Bet UNDER.
