The Indiana Pacers will look to pick up an important W on the road this Thursday, as they take on a Detroit Pistons team who are in a rebuild, but will not make it easy on the Pacers.
Indiana Pacers
The Pacers have really let things get away from them in the last 6 games only winning one of those confidence, but based on how this team is structured I do believe they will be able to turn things around.
Myles Turner has been insanely good defensively for this team and is probably the leader in terms of defensive player of the year and deservedly so, although his efforts are not always reflected in box scores.
It does make you wonder just how good this team could have been if they had been healthy as Oladipo and LeVert as well as TJ Warren have all missed substantial time for the Pacers this year.
It is also hard to ignore the efforts of Domantas Sabonis who has been nothing short of heroic at times averaging around 21/11/5 in terms of a stats line.
Detroit Pistons
The Pistons showed that they do still have some fight in them beating the Brooklyn Nets last time in order to break a 4 game losing streak. You do start to notice a bit of a trend with the Pistons as well, as they are able to play up to their competition with their last 3 wins coming against the Lakers 76ers and the Nets.
While Blake Griffen looked a little bit washed in that last game against the Nets Jerami Grant continued his ascent to All-Star status dropping 32 points with excellent efficiency.
The Pistons also made an interesting move to ship D-Rose out of town in a sign that shows the Pistons have completely given up on the season, so it will be interesting to see how the back-court shakes out for the Pistons with Delon Wright being the likeliest beneficiary.

Free Indiana Pacers vs. Detroit Pistons NBA Prediction:
The Pistons have been showing up in big spots against big teams, but I do not see them getting up for this one against the Pacers. They are coming off of a huge win against the Nets, but I feel that has more to do with the Nets playing bad as opposed to the Pistons playing well, although some of the guys on the Pistons have been stepping up like Jerami Grant.
I also can’t see Grant or any of the other guys on the interior having anywhere close to the amount of success that they had against the Nets here against the Pacers with Myles Turner defending the glass.
The price is also a bit weird to me as well, with the Pacers only having to lay 3 points here against what I believe to be one of the worst teams in the league, so I also see a decent amount of line value here as well.
