Game Analysis

Pacers gutted by injuries (Nesmith/Walker out, Siakam/Nembhard/McConnell DTD = -15-20% roster hit) vs Cavs near full strength with Mitchell (27.7) + Mobley/Allen frontcourt intact. Model projects Cavs 112-107 win (58% prob, -4.5 spread) with +5.6% ML edge at -190. Totals faded given poor tier performance (42% sharp lean).
