Neither the Brooklyn Nets nor the Indiana Pacers look competitive at this point in the season.

Brooklyn enters this season having lost its last three games, including eight of its last nine. Indy has won three straight, but it still has an overall record fall below .500 — or at least far below what it expected to have at this point in the year.

*All statistics, rankings and trends are current as of this writing at 3:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday, Jan. 3.

Brooklyn Nets

The Brooklyn Nets enter this game as the 11th-highest scoring team in the season. They’re scoring 105.5 points per game

The problem is that this number is a bit deceiving. In fact, if we’re being honest, it’s a lot deceiving.

At this point in the season, the Nets run the fastest pace in the NBA. A faster pace equals more possessions; more possessions equals more points.

The real telling sign here is Brooklyn’s offensive efficiency rating.

The Nets are just 27th in the league in offensive efficiency, meaning their points-per-game total is the equivalent of potato chips on a diet: empty calories and absolutely no nutrition.

Defensively, this team is also having plenty of problems. It is 30th in the league in terms of points per game allowed, giving up 114 points per contest.

That number is bad enough, but it’s absolutely brutal considering the slow pace the Nets run.

The Nets are 27th in defensive efficiency, which means the semingly “one-sided” group out in New York is really “no-sided” at this point in the season.

Indiana Pacers

The Indiana Pacers enter this contest scoring 104.9 points per game. That number is good enough for 16th in the league.

Defensively, Indy is giving up 106.1 points per contest. That number is good enough for 21st in the Association.

In case you haven’t realized, the “good enough for” is a nice way of saying “baaaadd” when it comes to this team.

Against the Nets, the key is to slow down the pace. This team is used to scoring high volumes of points, but only when there are plenty of possession to do just that.

Where they struggle is slowing down opposing offenses. If the pace is quick, Indy should be able to score with little problem.

BetOnline Sportsbook Review

BetOnline is where I go when I want to get serious about the number. Early lines, high limits and a massive betting board give me more chances to find an edge before the market catches up. Football is especially strong, but there’s no shortage of props, futures, live wagering and action across the major sports. I’ve learned over the years that half a point here and ten cents there can make a hell of a difference. BetOnline gives me another place to find them. — Razor Ray
