IND vs MEM Dream11: Hello, NBA fans! How is it going! There are a lot of facets you have to examine before diving into an NBA game. This is the period where various teams show desperation to either finish among the top teams or sneak into the Playoffs. This is also an area where we get a clearer picture of what teams will have the home court advantages for the most part. With that in mind, let us jump into the game between the Indiana Pacers and the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Pacers are undergoing one of their worst seasons in recent memory. They have been getting blown out against elite teams and their defense has been one of the worst recently. However, after acquiring Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield, the offensive production has surely shot up but all in all, the Pacers will not make the Play-in tournament.

On the other hand, the Memphis Grizzlies are just opposite of the Pacers and they have been fighting tooth and nail versus the Warriors for the second spot in the Western Conference. They have one of the deepest rosters in the league and they have continued to show that their youth has a lot of promise.

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Pacers: A great guard rotation but a long way to go
The Pacers have been one of the worst teams in the East and they have a tendency to give up big runs and play catch-up against most of the squads. They have struggled on the defensive end quite a bit and their frontline has been severly hit after the Domantas Sabonis trade and also with the injury to Myles Turner. Meanwhile, the guard rotation has been highly deep and young for the Pacers with versatile options. While Tyrese Haliburton has presented himself as an elite playmaker, constantly improving his scoring, Buddy Hield has become an all-around off-guard for the team.

On the other hand, young Chris Duarte can also develop into a highly reliable two-guard while Malcolm Brogdon has been the reason for most victories this season. Duane Washington Jr. as a deep guard has continued to be a huge difference-maker. Another impressive young player has been Jalen Smith, a young Power Forward, who can dip in points and clinch big-time boards. Oshae Brissett and Isaiah Jackson have filled in well as starting bigs but they are not as consistent as the former frontline of the team.

Grizzlies: They are championship contenders
It will not be a surprise if the Grizzlies make it to the Finals. They have one of the deepest teams in the league, an athletic team that is able to score in multiple ways. The sprightly squad has led the league in steals and can get the fastbreak game going. It is not a surprise considering that most of the core has just logged one to four seasons in this league and it is indeed a surprise that they have accomplished so much in such little time. While Ja Morant has been scintillating with his brilliant scoring and playmaking, propelling the team to multiple wins, the team has been more than about him overall.

When he was out before, the team won around 80% of their games and that is when the Grizzlies turned around the season. Desmond Bane is one of the best shooters in the league at this point while Jaren Jackson has been doing a brilliant job as the two-way big Forward. On the other hand, Steven Adams has been sealing the paint, grabbing rebounds, playing elite defense, and also providing more than handy playmaking. Dillon Brooks, who returned recently has been lighting up the league for a long time. Meanwhile, the bench of Clarke, Anderson, Jones, Melton, Williams, and Konchar has to be one of the deepest ones in the league. Surely, this team is a big-time contender with the number of options available.
