NBA Playoff Series: Celtics vs. Pacers Schedule, Viewing Options, Scores, Predictions, and Odds

The Boston Celtics are on the brink of reaching the NBA Finals as they lead the Eastern Conference finals against the Indiana Pacers 3-0. The Celtics, who won 64 games in the regular season, have been dominant in the series so far, winning both games at home and securing a crucial victory on the road in Indiana.

In Game 3, Boston showcased their depth and resilience as they overcame the absence of Indiana All-Star guard Tyrese Haliburton, who missed the game due to a hamstring injury. Led by Jayson Tatum’s stellar performance with 36 points, 10 rebounds, and eight assists, the Celtics had all five starters scoring in double figures. Andrew Nembhard stepped up in Haliburton’s absence with a career-high 32 points and nine assists, while Pascal Siakam and T.J. McConnell also made significant contributions off the bench.

As the series shifts back to Indiana for Game 4, the Pacers will be looking to avoid a sweep and keep their season alive. However, with Haliburton’s status still uncertain and the Celtics firing on all cylinders, the odds are stacked against them. The Celtics will be hoping to close out the series on Monday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and secure their spot in the NBA Finals. Stay tuned for more updates as the Celtics and Pacers continue their intense battle in the Eastern Conference finals.
