My 8* SLAM-DUNK is on the Indiana Pacers at 8:00 EST. The Thunder beat the Pacers by six points on the road in December, so this is a revenge spot for the visitors. The Thunder are 9-1 their last ten overall, but Indiana is right-behind at 8-2 over the same span. The Pacers didn't get caught looking ahead to this game last time out, hammering Washington 162-109. Their only loss in their last seven games was a 1-point setback to a desperate Lakers side. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the favorite to win the MVP this year by averaging 32.9 PPG, I think he'll have a hard time covering another spread here vs. this red-hot Pacers side. Indiana owns the fourth-lowest turnover rate and while I really respect this Thunder defense, I see the Pacers being able to have success offensively in this one. I'm not calling for an outright upset, but I do think it'll be a lot closer than what most are expecting. Grab the points, Pacers roll!
