Brooklyn Nets Form
The Nets managed to secure a surprising win against the Bucks. Moreover, this was a significant win for them as they are still in the chase for a playoff spot. Now they are on the 6th spot in the Eastern Conference, 1.5 games ahead of the ninth-place Heat in the race for the postseason.
D’Angelo Russell played a great game against the Bucks as he led the team with 25 points and 10 assists.

The Pacers are one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference this season. However, they lost their last game as the Celtics played better. Yet, Indiana is still on track to make the playoffs as they are on the 5th spot in the Eastern Conference. But they need to keep winning in order to secure their position.
On the offensive side of the game, the Pacers score an average of 107.8 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the 22nd spot in the league in scoring. Also, they have an average of 43.2 boards per game, combined with 26 dimes per night.

Prediction
The Nets are heading into this game on the wings of the win against the Bucks. They have the momentum in this game and they need to keep winning in order to secure a postseason spot. On the other side, the Pacers also need to win some games. They have the best defence in the league this season and they play at home. However, I will take the Nets to get another surprising win.
