Game review
What happened
The Pacers beat the Nets 136–109 on the road. Tyrese Haliburton led them with 24 points and 10 assists, and Pascal Siakam added 21. For the Nets, Nolan Traore had 17 points and 5 assists.
What the model got right
The model gave the Pacers a 63% chance on the road, mainly because of their higher team-strength rating (89.8 to 80.7), and they won by 27. Recent form pointed the same way: the Pacers had been losing by 6.5 points a game, the Nets losing by 12.4. Ben Sheppard missed the game for the Pacers, as the preview expected.
What didn't work
Not much went against the model in this one. Nolan Traore's 17 points for the Nets weren't enough to change the result.
Why
The result fits what the model leaned on, the team-strength rating. One win doesn't prove the model right: at 63%, about 4 in 10 games like this go the other way, and every result stays on our record.
