A victory over the Kings would be a great way to end a roadtrip - not to mention a creative birthday present for Pacers President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird.
The tough Kings are 12-5, coming off an emotional draining 109-112 loss Friday night against Minnesota at home. Amazingly, the Kings have carried on in the absence of Chris Webber (knee) without missing a beat. Predrag Stojakovic leads the way with 23.3 points per game.
This will be the first meeting between the Pacers and former starting center Brad Miller (14.3 ppg, 9.9 rpg) since Miller was part of a salary cap-induced trade that sent him to the Kings. Miller was an All-Star in his only full season with the Pacers in 2002-2003.
This one is hard to pick, I don't know if the Kings will lose two in a row at home. ARCO is a tough place to win, but if the T-Wolves can do it...why not us?
Pacers 104
Kings 101
