The NBA is back in action today as the Oklahoma City Thunder will clash with the Indiana Pacers.
The Thunder are heading into this game after a 108 – 97 win over the Nets. While on the other side, the Pacers held off New York 103-98 at home in their last contest Tuesday night.
Oklahoma Thunder Form
The Thunder played well in their last game as they beat the Nets in a convincing way. Right now, they are 4.5 games behind the Warriors for the top spot in the Western Conference and 3.5 games behind the Nuggets in the Northwest Division race. They are a good team and will surely play a role in the playoffs this season.
On the offensive side of the game, the Thunder score an average of 115.2 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the 4th spot in the league in scoring. Also, they have an average of 48.1 boards per game combined with 23.1 assists per night.
On the defensive side of the game, Oklahoma is conceding an average of 111.1 points per night. Therefore, this record is enough for the 15th spot in the league in scoring defence.
Indiana Pacers Form
The Pacers are playing well this season. However, they had a short drop in form as they lost two games in a row. Yet, they were able to bounce back as they swept the poor Knicks team. At the moment, Indiana is on the 4th spot in the Eastern Conference with eight games behind the Bucks for the top spot. Additionally, they have the in-form Bojan Bogdanovic who scored 24 points in the win against New York.
On the offensive side of the game, the Pacers score an average of 108.2 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the 21st spot in the league in scoring. Also, they have an average of 43.1 boards per game combined with 26 dimes per game.
On the defensive side of the game, the Pacers concede an average of 103.9 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the 2nd spot in the league in scoring defence.
Prediction
The Thunder is a team that is playing well at the moment. However, they will be playing their second game in a row and that will be hard for them. Moreover, this will their 3 away game in a row and that will take a toll as well.
On the other side, the Pacers bounced back after the 2 defeats. Also, it seems that they are getting back in form. So I expect that the Pacers will take advantage of the Thunder complex schedule and win this game.
