The Indiana Pacers are only one game out of the eighth and final playoff spot, and they'll try to pick that game up against the league-worst New York Knicks.
Projected Starting Lineups
New York Knicks (14-61)
G Shane Larkin - 6.1 ppg, 2.9 apg
G Langston Galloway - 11.3 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.2 apg
F Lance Thomas - 8.5 ppg, 3.1 rpg
F Andrea Bargnani - 14.9 ppg, 4.3 rpg
C Louis Amundson - 6.0 ppg, 6.1 rpg
Indiana Pacers (34-43)
G George Hill - 15.7 ppg, 4.8 apg
G C.J. Miles - 12.7 ppg, 2.8 rpg
F Solomon Hill - 12.2 ppg, 4.0 rpg
F David West - 11.7 ppg, 6.9 rpg
C Roy Hibbert - 10.6 ppg, 6.9 rpg
What to watch for:
How will Paul George play?
George scored 13 points in 15 minutes in his season debut, and he's expected to receive a few more minutes tonight. Indiana doesn't need him to win this game, but getting him back and being productive will go a long way in getting the Pacers into the playoffs and potentially make some noise when they get there.
Prediction: Pacers win 102-87
The Knicks are absolutely free falling, and the Pacers are finally getting healthy and have everything to play for. Indiana will win this one easily.
