Golden State can play any style, but Indiana (9-1-2 ATS run) is all about slowing the pace down and relying on rebounding and defense. The Pacers are a long way from home so they aren't going to try and run with Golden State. Indiana is tops in the NBA points allowed and #7 in rebounding. They held Utah to 43% shooting the last game in a road win. The Pacers are 5-0-2 ATS against the Western Conference as well as an impressive 19-7-2 ATS in their last 28 road games. Golden State is off a marquee showdown win against Western Conference rival Oklahoma City, and when these teams meet the Pacers are 19-7 ATS in the last 26 meetings. Play the points on Indiana.
