I think this line offers some value. The Raps are finally healthy. Bargnani and Jonas V. are back and I like that Hibbert may have to travel outside of his comfort zone in the lane to matchup with Bargs.
The Raps backcourt is better overall, imo, especially with the depth that Anderson, Ross and Lucas provide.
Rudy against Paul George will be phenomenal to watch. Rudy is an underrated defender and I don't expect George to have many uncontested shots.
I am somewhat concerned with Amir defending D. West, but I think he matches up well in terms of rebounding prowess, which is more important, imo, against this Indy team.
Even though Indy rebounds and defends extremely well, they are playing their 4th game in 5 nights. This has an inevitable effect. They have covered 5 straight home games ATS and this a lot to be laying tonight.
I like the Raps to utilize their(now) deep roster and compete for a full 60 minutes. After letdowns in the 4th against Miami and Boston, I expect a more cohesive and spirited full on effort tonight.
Playing against a slow paced Pacer team only helps with such a large line, imo. The Raps have already seen them twice, with both games being decided by only 2 points.
I am on the Raps +7.5. Good luck with whatever you decide.
