The matchup vs. the Indiana Pacers is a positive one; they have given up the most points per game in the NBA to the opposing team's starting SGs this year (19.0).The Detroit Pistons will likely get a boost in opportunities in this game from squaring off against the 4th-quickest pace offense in the NBA over the last 10 games (the Indiana Pacers).Offensive rebounds save possession and result in further opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Pistons rank 2nd-best in in the league while on their home court with 16.0 offensive boards per game this year.The matchup against Indiana may be a good one for getting to the charity stripe; opposing starting SGs have attempted an enormous 4.0 free throws per game over the last 20 games when the Pacers are on the road (3rd-most in the league).
