Struggled in a blowout loss to Lakers Sun but Pacers are a much better match-up. Claxton grabbed 10 vs them in their last meeting a few weeks back and he went over this in 3 straight games prior to that LAL game. The Pacers were 26th in the NBA in March in opponent rebounds allowed/G and in their last 10 games no les than 15 players have grabbed 10+ rebounds against them, and two more had 9+. Hardly uncommon for 2-3 opponents to go over this in the same night. Claxton far and away the best rebounding option for Nets. Didn't have to overly exert himself Sunday. I like a bounce back from him here. Lakers had 3 players with 10+ in Indiana's last game.
Bridges is now on my radar when he plays back to back. He is a prime fade candidate when you break down his second night of back to back splits. Under.
This seems generous as Schroder is more than capable of topping this in assists only and is averaging a combined 9.4 R/A since joining the Nets. He easily topped this in five straight before being fairly quiet Sunday in only 28 minutes of a loss to the Lakers.
This is simply a big number for Aaron Nesmith who averages a combined 17.5 PRA on the season and that number has decreased to 15.8 PRA in the month of March, despite logging more minutes per game than his season average of 27.6. The Pacers are playing significantly slower than they were to start the season. Indiana also possesses a deep rotation and will play up to 10 players. This combo line should be 17.5.Indiana also possesses a deep rotation and will play up to 10 players.
Like an oasis in the desert, the Nets show up on the schedule for back-to-back games against the Pacers, with the rematch on Wednesday at Barclays Center. It looked like Brooklyn celebrated April Fool's a day early on Sunday when letting the Lakers get off to a 26-4 lead and not bothering to guard LeBron on his three-pointers (he made a career-high nine!). That effectively ends the Nets' longshot playoff hopes, and the Pacers looked back in gear when beating the same Lake Show by 19 on Friday. Indiana well capable of duplicating a 121-100 home romp past Brooklyn on March 16 when Pascal Siakam slotted home 28 points. Play Pacers
