Schule's 10* NBA Friday Night Fistful of Dollar$ - RAPTORS@PACERS
(NBA) Toronto vs. Indiana, 04/29/2016 3:30 PM, Score: 83 - 101
Point Spread: 2.00 | -103.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the Toronto Raptors.

The Raptors head back to Indiana with a chance to close out the Pacers in Game 6. So far home court hasn't been much of an advantage in this series, with both teams winning once on the road. The Pacers came very close in Game 5, but blew a 13 point lead in the fourth quarter. I think that such a demoralizing loss sets up Indiana for an emotional let down here tonight. The Raptors haven't had any trouble winning at Indiana, and they've covered the spread in nine of their last 11 at Bankers Field House.

Indiana scored just nine points in the fourth quarter in Toronto in Game 5, but the total did go over for the first time in the series. Despite a heavy trend of low scoring games in these playoffs, and four of five games going under in this series, we still see a higher total in Game 6 than we saw in Game 5. DeMar DeRozan scored 34 points on 10-of-22 shooting in the last game, after struggling earlier in the series. This is a good sign moving forward for the Raptors, and I like their chances of eliminating the Pacers tonight.

Take TOR.
