It seems the Pacers haven't won a game since Reggie Miller was on the team. That's fine with Indiana, who have turned tanking into an art form.
The NBA has a serious problem when teams such as the Pacers want to lose. The Bucks certainly will try to do their best to accommodate the Pacers.
Milwaukee might not have superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo because of a calf injury. He is questionable. Indiana lists eight players as either questionable or doubtful. On that list is Pascal Siakam, who has a knee injury. He is as valuable to the Pacers as Antetokounmpo is to Milwaukee.
No team wants to lose to the Pacers, who have the worst record in the league at 15-52. Milwaukee is 3-0 versus the Pacers this season with two of those victories being achieved without Antetokounmpo.
You have to go before the All-Star break to find the last time the Pacers won. That was on Feb. 11. I am not sure which is more egregious - the Pacers losing their last 12 games, or only covering once during these past dozen games?
The Bucks have lost four in a row. Those losses, however, were against the Hawks - winners of nine in a row - Heat, Suns and Magic. Those four opponents are a combined 38 games above .500.
The last time Milwaukee went against a bad opponent was five games ago at home against the Jazz, another tanking team. The Bucks blew out the Jazz, 113-99.

Our selection is on the Portland Trail Blazers / Philadelphia 76ers game to finish OVER the total on Sunday at 6:10pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:
Portland won last game with 124 points scored. It's playing solid offensive basketball right now.
The Trail Blazers have now gone OVER the total in 13 of their L18 games this season.
Philadelphia got back into the win column too on Saturday. We think it'll play freely tonight.
The Sixers have gone OVER the total in 12 of their L19 games played in the second half of a back-to-back.
The OVER is also 5-1 over the L6 games between these two teams.
The play is on the OVER.

Jack's Free Pick Sunday: Portland Trail Blazers -8
The Portland Trail Blazers are motivated to improve their standing in the play-in battling it out with the Warriors and Clippers for the 8th spot here down the stretch. They are as healthy as they have been in a long time with the only key player they are missing being Shaedon Sharpe.
While the Blazers are rested and ready to go Sunday playing just their 2nd game in 5 days, the Philadelphia 76ers will be playing the 2nd of a back-to-back after a lackluster 104-97 win over the tanking Nets yesterday. The 76ers will also be playing their 5th game in 7 days.
They just aren't equipped to handle this tough rest situation right now considering they are without four of their top five scorers in Maxey (29.0 PPG), Embiid (26.6 PPG), George (16.0 PPG) and Oubre (16.0 PPG). I don't think they'll have anything left in the tank for Portland tonight.
The 76ers are 3-5 SU & 2-6 ATS in their last eight games overall with their three wins coming against tanking teams in the Nets, Grizzlies and Jazz. They were blown out by all five playoff contenders during this stretch with all five losses coming by 9 points or more, and four by 14 points or more. Bet the Blazers Sunday.

Dave Price
Dave's Sunday Free Play:
1* on Warriors/Knicks UNDER 219
The Key: I like the price we are getting on this UNDER between the Knicks and Warriors today. The Warriors will be without 7 of their top 8 scorers today as they rest them on the 1st night of a back-to-back. They know they have a much better chance to beat the Wizards on the road tomorrow than they do the Knicks today, so they are sitting all their key guys. They will struggle offensively tonight to say the least. The Knicks are 8-4 UNDER in their last 12 games overall and playing their best defense of the season. They are coming off a 101-92 win at Indiana. Take the UNDER.

John Martin
1 Unit FREE PLAY on Blazers/76ers UNDER 228.5
The 76ers are without four of their top five scorers right now. They could rest even more guys playing the second of a back-to-back after a 104-97 win over the Nets yesterday. They will struggle to score today, which is a big reason I'm on the UNDER. The 76ers have scored 109 points or fewer in six of their last eight games overall with the UNDER going 5-3 in those eight games. The Blazers recently went for 204 combined points with the Hornets and 205 with the Rockets. They have given up 114 points or fewer in seven of their last eight games overall. Give me the UNDER.
