Pacers vs Knicks Pick

Indiana F Pascal Siakam (knee) is considered doubtful and New York G Jalen Brunson (ankle, neck) is listed as questionable for this contest. The Pacers always get up for the Knicks, so my lean is to take the points. The Knicks have moved into sixth in defensive efficiency and will keep this under the total. Final Score Prediction, New York Knicks win 115-102.
