New Orleans Pelicans VS Indiana Pacers

This NBA regular season game will be played at 08:00 Beijing time on December 21, 2025, with the New Orleans Pelicans hosting the Indiana Pacers. This prediction is for Over/Under 235.5 total odds, both of which are priced at 0.9.

The New Orleans Pelicans' recent record requires attention to their defensive performance and game rhythm, and their defensive efficiency and opponent's scoring limiting ability are the key to affecting small points. The Indiana Pacers are known for their fast offensive pace, but they are also prone to low scores if they encounter strong defensive teams or decline in their own shooting efficiency recently. The specific offensive and defensive data of both sides during the predicted time period, especially the goals conceded and the pace of the game, will be central to assessing the possibility of small points.

records between the two teams show that there are variables in the style of play. The Pacers are usually fast-paced and have historically had high scores against the Pelicans. However, the number of games close to the 235.5-point threshold needs to be carefully examined. Small points will be supported if most of the matches in historical matchups are below this threshold, or if the pace of recent encounters has slowed down due to tactical adjustments.

are for the "under 235.5" over/under market, with odds set at 0.9 for both sides. This is a balanced odds, indicating that the probability of a total score over or under 235.5 is very close, and the market is set accurately with no obvious bias. This suggests that the total points of the game may be fiercely contested around this value, and a slight change in offensive efficiency or defensive intensity of either side could determine the direction of the market.

In terms of predictions, the prediction of this game's small points (less than 235.5) needs to be based on several key points: first, the stability of the Pelicans' home defense, if it can effectively limit the Pacers' quick transition, it will greatly reduce the total score; second, whether the Pacers' offensive efficiency on the road will fluctuate; and third, the tactics at critical moments of the game may tend to defend and press the rhythm. Although the Pacers are used to a fast pace, if the Pelicans manage to bring the game into a halftime positional battle and increase their defensive intensity, the likelihood of a total score under 235.5 points will increase significantly. The balanced odds of the market also suggest that this is a close contest and there is a chance of small points.
