Raptors vs. Pacers preview

The Raptors and Pacers are two teams going in completely opposite directions for the first month of the season.

The Raptors are winners of six of their last seven after a brutal 1-4 start, but they have appeared to pick things up in the last two weeks. Meanwhile, the Pacers are still struggling from their start, going 1-11 in their first 12 contests, including a 35-point loss to the Phoenix Suns in their last game.

The loss to the Suns comes off the heels of a 24-point loss to the Utah Jazz in which they surrendered 152 points. They lost every time on their four-game road trip by double digits, but a return home could be everything they've needed.

The Raptors' job is simple. Don't be the team that ends this losing streak. With the Pacers disheveled on the injury report and defensive stops a premium, the Raptors just have to execute their game plan in order to pull out a win.
