Betting on the Indiana Pacers
- Regular Season Record: 23-18
After a very difficult stretch, the Indiana Pacers seem to have taken a second wind and have jumped back into the fight for a direct playoff spot, coming into this game in sixth place in the Eastern Conference after winning eight of their last ten games, including the last two.
The Pacers’ most recent win came last Sunday at home against the Charlotte Hornets.The team had a great comeback in the last quarter, scoring 43 points to turn things around and take the win by a score of 111-116, with Myles Turner scoring 29 points, being one of five players who scored at least 15 points.
The Pacers have been very vulnerable on defense this campaign, averaging 115.6 points allowed per game, but they have managed to counteract that a bit with an offense that is among the best in the league with an average of 115.6 points scored.
Betting on the New York Knicks
- Regular Season Record: 22-18
The New York Knicks have regained the good momentum they had in early December and had lost a few weeks ago. So they come into this game in seventh place in the East, but only 0.5 game behind sixth place, so they know that a win here would see them move up to that all-important position.
The New York team has been consistent on offense with an average of 114.2 points scored per game, thanks to Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson, who are at a very high level. And in recent months they have been able to display an excellent performance on defense, improving their average points allowed per game to 111.3.
JefeBet Prediction
The Pacers are on a significant upward trend, but the two losses during that stretch came precisely on the road, a condition in which they have shown many problems this campaign, especially on defense, averaging 117.0 points allowed per game.
The Knicks, who are also going through a very good moment, will try to exploit these shortcomings. They also have a defense that is looking more and more solid and will surely know how to make a complicated night for a good visiting offense.
The Knicks have won in the last six previous games in which they hosted the visiting Pacers, so considering Indiana’s difficulties being away from home, we expect the New York side to set the pace here and come away with the win.
Prediction: New York Knicks Spread.
