Indiana at New Orleans

Coming off a disappointing 103-99 loss last time out, Indiana hits the road with a chance to get on the winning track Friday at New Orleans. Meanwhile, New Orleans comes off an 113-107 loss against the Lakers, a game where they were a 1 point favorite. Indiana has suffered their share of bumps and bruises again this week - and they won't have the services of their entire roster. But they did get Jamal Tinsley back in the mix after missing 15 games. The Pacers have a strong  mark with the lineup you'll see tonight. And, they're on a very profitable 11-4 spread run. They'll face a Hornets team that has dropped 4 in a row and 6 of 8, both SU and ATS. In fact, their current skid started with a 97-75 loss to these Indiana Pacers. Indiana held the Hornets to 34% shooting in the 22-point win back in February. It's just a plain and simple mismatch. The losing skid grows to 5 straight for New Orleans as Indiana wins this game. Two stars on the Pacers.
