The Indiana Pacers took a hit with injuries and free agent defections, and started the season looking like one of the worst teams in the NBA. They have begun to play a lot better, and one of the reasons is that George Hill healthy and back in the lineup. The Pacers are 30-36 overall, but with Hill in the lineup they are 15-7 SU and ATS, and just 12-27 SU without him as he has made a huge difference. Chicago has injury issues of their own with Derrick Rose sidelined once again. The Bulls are just 4-7 in the 11 games since Rose's recent knee injury after going 6-1 in the seven games prior to his injury. The Pacers are off a double-digit home loss, where they have followed at 7-1 ATS in their next game over the last eight occurrences, and the Bulls are just 6-14 ATS in their last 20 vs. the East. The Pacers are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Play on Indiana.
