Prediction for the NBA match between Memphis vs Indiana, which will take place on December 1st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Grizzlies have won the last three games they've played at home. Taylor Jenkins' team beat Portland (123:98), Detroit (131:111), and New Orleans (120:109). To recap, Memphis has already won five matches in a row. Before that, the Grizzlies managed to beat Philadelphia at home (117:111) and Chicago away (142:131).

Due to that success, Memphis has already reached third place in the offensive rating. On average, the Grizzlies score 121 points per game. Only the Eastern Conference contenders, Boston and Cleveland, have better results.

The Pacers were one of the top offensive teams last season. Rick Carlisle's team is now only 11th in the respective rankings, with an average of 114.4 points per game and 123.3 in the previous championship. On the other hand, Indiana's defense hasn't really improved – they're conceding 118.1, compared to 120.2 in the previous one.

The team's decline in performance means that Indiana can't move up from ninth in the Eastern Conference. The win-loss record is 9:11. In the last game, the Pacers lost to Detroit at home with a final score of 106:130. So, Indiana's winning streak, which saw them beat Washington (115:103), New Orleans (114:110), and Portland (121:114) in three consecutive matches, came to an end.

At the start of this season, the Western Conference was more competitive than the Eastern Conference. Memphis is doing better than Indiana in the East. We think the Grizzlies will win for the sixth time in a row. Recent head-to-head meetings between the teams suggest this is likely. From SmolMarkets, we're going for TU rebounds.
