Prediction for the NBA Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers match which will take place on March 13th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder showed a lot of promise last season and even made the play-in game, but few expected the Oklahoma team to make the kind of strides they did this season. Not only did the Thunder almost clinch a bye into the playoffs, but they are in contention for the home-court advantage through the conference finals.

Oklahoma is riding a three-game winning streak into its matchup with Indiana. On the road, Mark Dano's team took down Portland (128:120), and at home, they beat Miami (107:100) and Memphis (124:93).

Indiana Pacers

The Pacers are also one of the top teams to start the season. But unlike the Thunder, Rick Carlisle's team is far from comfortable in the standings. Indiana is on the seventh line of the East with a gap of 0.5 wins from the top-6.

In the previous game, the Pacers confidently coped with a direct competitor - Orlando 111:97. Indiana showed excellent defense, a rare case for the current championship. This victory was only Indiana's third win in seven previous games.

Expert Betting Tips

Indiana is still searching for their game after trading for Pascal Siakam. Oklahoma changed during the championship, but not as significantly as the Pacers. The Thunder did not need to make any significant tactical changes and, as a result, continued to win. Oklahoma will prove their class in the upcoming game and win. Indiana's defense has been questionable all season.
