Get your Daily Line NBA Today for Game 3: Pacers vs Bucks Odds & Playoff Expert Insights from MyBookie

Pacers vs Bucks Odds: The fifth-seeded Milwaukee Bucks host a crucial Game 3 against the No. 4 Indiana Pacers, needing a win after losing the first two matchups, despite being favorites to turn the series around.

Their top seven players from that squad are the ones playing together this season, and have helped them take a 2-0 series lead over this version.

NBA Moneylines subject to Change: Milwaukee -222 / Indiana +177

On the updated series odds, the Pacers are -500 and the Bucks +370. Indiana in five is the new favorite at +240 with a sweep at +380, and we think there’s no chance of a sweep barring injury early in Game 3 to Giannis.

That the series goes the full seven games regardless of winner is +210 while just four games is a +380 longshot.

Halliburton said he expects the rest of the series to maintain the same intensity level.

“We don’t have to sit here and act like it’s any secret,” he said after Tuesday’s win. “We don’t like them, they don’t like us and that’s just what it is. Everybody says the league rivalries aren’t here anymore. “Well, it’s right here.”

Bucks Looking For Spark

Bucks All-Star guard Damian Lillard had missed about a month with the blood clot issue in his shoulder issue and was questionable for Game 2 but played in the eight-point loss.

And in a surprise, he played 37 minutes when many expected a restriction. Lillard finished with 14 points and seven assists, but was just 4-for-13 from the field as his legs looked heavy.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

“We don’t want to put ourselves in a hole early in the game,” Antetokounmpo said. “I think we’ve done it in two games. We also did it in the third quarter. It’s hard to play from behind. We just gotta be smarter the way we play, be more urgent when we start the game; hopefully we can be the one to set the tone and not them.”

Pacers vs Bucks Odds and Betting Prediction

After seeing his starters get thoroughly outplayed in the first two games of their first-round series vs. Indiana, Bucks head coach Doc Rivers is considering the idea of tweaking the lineup for Game 3.

The Bucks started Antetokounmpo, Brook Lopez, Kyle Kuzma, Taurean Prince and Ryan Rollins in Game 1, with Lillard replacing Rollins in Game 2.

Those two units were the most frequently used Milwaukee starting lineups after the All-Star break, but they haven’t been good in this series.

The starters were outscored by 15 points in about 17 minutes in Game 1 and by nine points in 16 minutes in Game 2.

“We’ve gotten off to two poor starts, and we’ve got to make an adjustment there, for sure,” Rivers said after Game 2. “We’ll just see. I’m very confident about this series. Very.” Bucks 117, Pacers 115.
