New Orleans Pelicans – Statistics & Current Form

The Pels have had a new head coach since this season: the job is now held by Stan Van Gundy. After a good two years without a job, the 61-year-old Californian replaced Alvin Gentry. The two-time All Star Game Head coach is an old hand in the NBA. He has already worked as a trainer in Miami, Orlando and most recently in Detroit.

With his experience, a candidate for the playoffs should be formed from the Pels. Since the renaming in 2013, when the Hornets became the Pelicans in New Orleans, the leap into the playoffs has only been made twice.

It also set a sweep in the first round in the postseason, which is why the Louisiana franchise has had little to celebrate for a long time. However, the first pick with Zion Williamson was landed last season. A stroke of luck that was cheered by thousands of fans on the streets of “Big Easy” back then.

Williamson should start late this season

As is well known, the joy did not last long, as the young savior was injured before the start of the season and only made his debut months later. His qualities are unquestionably exceptional, which is why the chances of reaching the playoffs are quite good this season.

In addition to a Williamson who is now healthy from the start, the team from the Southwest Division has another high-performance player in Brandon Ingram. In the most recent win against the Raptors, the small forward scored an impressive 31 points, making him the most accurate player on the court.

Expected lineup of New Orleans Pelicans:
Williamson – Ingram – Adams – Bledsoe – Ball

Indiana Pacers – Statistics & Current Form

The Indianapolis franchise was pleased with 33 points from Malcolm Brodgon last match day. For the point guard this represented a new record in his career and this also applies to the enormous number of seven successful Treys.

However, with the exception of the once more stable center Sabonis, who delivered a double-double in all games so far, the performance of his teammates was comparatively weak, which is why the game was lost against the Knicks with 102: 106.

The previous back-to-back games against the Celtics and the encounter with the Cavs apparently took a lot of energy, as the game lacked a sufficiently good physique on the part of the Pacers. Readable from the rebound balance, among other things, which with 51:32 was very clearly in favor of the Knicks.

In addition, the hospital in Indiana is slowly filling up: Lamb and Warren are missing two high-performing players and two players in the second guard of coach Nate Bjorkgren’s team have to pass.

Again not a high score in a NOLA game?

In view of the very strong defense of the hosts, third-lowest value in the NBA after the Suns and 76ers, the odds of less than 219.5 points in the game between New Orleans and Indiana are also attractive. Bwin is offering them at 1.80.

This value tip is underpinned by the already low number of points in the games of the Mississippi franchise with an average of 206.66 points per game.

Expected line-up of Indiana Pacers:
Sabonis – Holiday – Turner – Oladipo – Brogdon

The pairing has developed a peculiar statistic in recent years. For six duels, the winners have alternated after two successes.

For the upcoming game in the “Blender” between New Orleans and Indiana, the odds are very even.

Betting base forecast & New Orleans Pelicans – Indiana Pacers tip

Basketball in New Orleans is different this season than before. With Van Gundy, a coach has been signed who attaches great importance to the defense. This depends, among other things, on Eric Bledsoe, who was brought in by the Bucks and was twice on the NBA’s all-defensive team.

The last game against the champions from 2019 was an example of the upswing. Eight of the previous ten duels were lost. The Pels have not won any of their last five home games. This time it was that time again, because the team got a narrow success.

For the game between the New Orleans Pelicans and Indiana Pacers, the forecast includes that the home side win again. This is supported not only by the stable condition of the troop around Zion Williamson, but also by the slight kink in the form of the guests.

Key-Facts – New Orleans Pelicans vs. Indiana Pacers Tipp

• Both teams have four wins and two losses
• Pacers have various failures in the squad
• Pelicans have the third best defense in the NBA

Only one of the last three games was won and especially the last home defeat against the Knicks represented a step backwards in terms of play. Sabonis is still strong as a bear, but some other players in the starting five recently appeared less strong than at the beginning of the season. In addition, the Bjorkgren troop arrives with injury concerns.
