One year after facing a 3-0 series deficit in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Boston Celtics lead this year’s conference finals by the exact same margin.

Boston faces the Indiana Pacers as 7.5-point road favorites with a chance to finish off the sweep. Indy All-Star Tyrese Haliburton is expected to miss his second straight game with a hamstring injury.

At FanDuel, Boston is a -100000 favorite to eliminate the Indiana Pacers and likely awaits the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals. The Celtics would have home-court advantage over both Dallas or the Minnesota Timberwolves.

In last year’s Eastern Conference Finals, Boston won three straight games to force a Game 7.
