00:00there will be at least a sixth game in the eastern conference finals tomorrow night back

00:04in indianapolis between the pacers and the next new york wins by 17 with its season on the brink

00:11in game number five has it changed our outlook has it changed the assessment of who wins the

00:17eastern conference crown to match up against the oklahoma city thunder in the nba finals again

00:22indiana a minus 370 favorite still outright to win the set as donnie told you don't bet that price

00:29the pacers in six as a three and a half point home favorite tomorrow at minus 174 is the number if

00:36you think this even goes seven the pacers number they're not giving you a lot of a discount as

00:42indiana is going to be at least a four point road underdog in a seventh game if it even extends to

00:48that point inside madison square garden but donnie before we even let our minds run to a potential

00:54winner take all game seven let's talk about game number six indiana opens as a three and a half

01:00point favorite back home in indy against the new york knicks and a total for tomorrow night now at

01:06218 when you see three and a half points in favor of the pacers what is your first thought for game

01:12number six i get excited just like we saw the three and a half and the four for the new york knicks

01:17as i come on now this is a must win game situation with a quality ball club on their home court and you're

01:22just asking them to win the game but as i stated before it's not a foregone conclusion because

01:26otherwise we'd have double digit two touchdown spreads right now on the indiana pacers i expect

01:30a great basketball game but i get that same feeling i got yesterday where's no doubt in my mind the

01:35knicks take care of business the same way with the indiana pacers understanding there is no tomorrow

01:41for them even though two days later they would play again in the garden this is why you play the games

01:46to close out on your home court and if you burn that opportunity you are not winning in new york

01:50because all the momentum was completely shifted there that place will be as loud as it's ever been

01:56and the pacers aren't winning that game don't care what that spread is so for game number six i see the

02:01three and a half and i want to bet it immediately for the pacers because they're winning this game

02:05by five plus now it should be noted right of course that indiana in the second round last year against

02:11the new york knicks did force a game seven headed the madison square garden and won that game outright

02:16as an underdog is it a different situation are these different teams absolutely and this is for

02:22a spot in the nba finals although of course each and every stage is significant at the time donnie one

02:29of the things that stood out to both you and i yesterday was the public betting love for the

02:33pacers despite new york being at home inside the mecca inside the world's most famous arena nearly 60

02:40percent of the overall volume of bets on indiana in our fade the public poll we asked what is the best bet

02:46for game number five inside the garden more than 50 of the public in our voting was backing the

02:52pacers getting four points at that time of course the new york knicks win by 17 has it changed the

02:58public assessment of who the right side is for game number six no 71 of the money right now on the spread

03:06backing the home favorites that being the pacers laying three and a half points 67 of the overall

03:12volume of bets doing the same backing indiana as the slight three and a half point home favorite

03:17exactly and that's the way it should be at this point so at least the public is saying like i missed

03:21an opportunity game five oh maybe the pacers aren't that good no understand the task at hand you have

03:26the pacers coming in hot in the game number five but i just saw a great spot for the mix fully healthy

03:30and maybe some people wavering who was car anthony towns knee really that bad so that line certainly

03:35collapsing a little bit by a point until we got so game time but you saw carl anthony towns was just fine

03:40just like you know knee smith was the game before for the pacers but i just expect home court advantage

03:44it's hard to win playoff games on the road specifically when a team already has the lead

03:48and understands the task at hand yes we have another game oh no big deal the pacers lost game

03:52number six that's not how they're going to play this game all chips in in game six indiana wins that

03:57but again no surprise that the pacers were the public love in game number five they'll be it again in

04:01game number six now if we go to game number seven that's a whole different identity because the public

04:05probably hey man lost enough money the past two games um maybe the knicks are the right side but

04:09for saturday night in indiana a price under five yeah the public's gonna love the pacers on that
