Improved Pacers try to pass another test in Boston

Basketball Betting Lines

01/27/2012 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers try to follow up their biggest win of the season tonight when they head to Boston to face the Celtics at TD Garden.

Indiana picked up a big win over the Eastern Conference-leading Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, as Danny Granger had 22 points, Roy Hibbert scored 20 to help the Pacers to a 95-90 win, their first victory in the Windy City in almost four years.

David West chipped in 14 points, including a key runner in the lane that gave Indiana some distance down the stretch.

The Pacers snapped a six-game road losing streak against the Bulls, winning in Chicago for the first time since March 22, 2008.

"I thought we could win this game. Chicago's a good team, but so are we," said Hibbert. "Our composure went up after halftime."

The win over the Bulls was even more impressive considering just one night earlier Indiana suffered an embarrassing 19-point loss at home to the Orlando Magic.

"Right now we expect to win," Granger said.

Boston, meanwhile, rallied to beat the Magic on Thursday, as Paul Pierce led five players in double-figures to help the Celtics erase a 21-point halftime in a 91-83 win.

Pierce had 24 and Kevin Garnett added 12 points and 10 rebounds. The Celtics, who held the Magic to a franchise-low 56 points in a win on Monday, trailed by as many as 27 in the first half but made the comeback despite playing without starters Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen.

"It should give us tremendous confidence, especially with guys hurt - key guys hurt," said Pierce. "We didn't have Jermaine to guard Dwight (Howard), we're without our All-Star point guard, our All-Star 2-guard. Everything was in the making for us to lay down and get ready for tomorrow, but there's something about this locker room where the light has switched on."

Boston has won three straight and four of five.

"That was a character builder for our team," Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said. "All we talked about was one bucket at a time."

Indiana has beaten the Celtics twice already this season and has won three straight in the series after losing five in a row to Boston. The Celtics have also lost four of six as the visitor in this matchup.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
