Both of these teams are in good form coming into this one, though each is very different from the other.
Houston is going to have some hiccups with there 2-headed monster but most of the time it works.
Indiana is playing well and has to be super excited for how things will be when they finally get fully healthy.
Indiana Pacers
Indiana has won four straight and 7 of their last 8, with that lone loss being in overtime. They are playing really good ball without Jeremy Lamb, without Myles Turner and of course without Victor Oladipo.
T.J Warren might have been one of the best pickups nobody is talking about. He is scoring 18ppg and leads the team in steals.

Malcolm Brogdon is the pickup that everyone is talking about. He leads the team in scoring and assists, 20 and 9, and has made 98% of his free throws.
No Turner has meant big time opportunities for Damontas Sabonis. I have always loved his game and the numbers show he could have always contributed more, 19ppg and 13rpg.
Indiana, despite all of its new faces this season has maintained its strong defensive mentality. When they are healthy they can be smothering as all those injured players are above average on D.
This is an interesting test for the Pacers as Houston is a very good team, though unique in their construction compared to other good teams.
Houston Rockets
Houston is going to be shorthanded for this one – no Eric Gordon, no Clint Capela, no Danuel House and no Gerald Green.
[dfads params=’groups=20599&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
Those are all key contributors, especially Gordon and Capela who pay key support roles for the the Big Two.
That would be James Harden and Russell Westbrook. As the season has progressed Harden has really come alive and is averaging 38ppg to lead the league by a wide margin. He is also 6th in assists. Westbrook has triple doubles in two of the first four games but has been more pedestrian since. The team has been winning though, 5 straight.
With so many injuries it going to be a challenge to put a strong enough supporting cast around those two stars. They had only 12 bench points in their recent win over the Clippers. Indiana will push this team to find some balance to win.

Free Indiana Pacers vs. Houston Rockets NBA Prediction:
With so many injuries on both sides we might not get a line until much closer to game time. Both teams are in good form despite them though.
I think the Rockets are really going to miss Capela and what he does for them on the boards and in pick and roll situations.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: No line currently posted (I like the visitors though)
Brogdon is going to have to try and guard and keep up with one of Westbrook or Harden. If he can make it difficult they might even get the upset win.
