Brooklyn Nets vs. Indiana Pacers Betting Prediction

The Brooklyn Nets are healthy and develop more and more chemistry each game. Kevin Durant remains the team's focal point, as he should be. KD is as dominant now as he has ever been.

Kyrie Irving has found a way to mesh with Durant, and they are quite the 1-2 punch. Ben Simmons is beginning to contribute in several ways to the Nets. Simmons has always been a plus defender, but he is now finding a way to integrate his skill set into the Nets' offense.

The Indiana Pacers have some of the best guard play in the NBA, highlighted by Tyrese Haliburton. Haliburton has done it all for the Pacers and should be headed to the All-Star game. The balanced attack of the Pacers is too much for the Nets to overcome. Take Indiana.
