The Indiana Pacers will meet the Atlanta Hawks tonight in an NBA 2013 in a game that will be live streaming and online free from Atlanta, Georgia at 7:30 PM ET. The game will be broadcast live on TSOH, from the Atlanta region.
The Pacers have had a difficult time playing in Atlanta, winning only once there in the regular season since 2005.
The Hawks are struggling to win anywhere without All-Star center Al Horford.
The Pacers look to snap an 11-game regular-season skid in Atlanta and send the Hawks to their longest losing streak of the season Wednesday night.
On Tuesday, Indiana made up for its lone loss during that stretch with an 86-79 victory over visiting Toronto. Roy Hibbert led the way with 22 points, while Danny Granger added 13 as he continues to work his way back into game shape.
"Our guys buckled down and had a great defensive performance," said coach Frank Vogel, whose club lost 95-82 in Toronto last week.
The Pacers, however, have had some issues when they've traveled to Atlanta (18-17). They've given up an average of 105.6 points and a 48.0 field-goal percentage -- including 40.6 from 3-point range -- during their regular-season losing streak there.
This is the first meeting since Indiana ousted the Hawks in the opening round of last season's playoffs. The Pacers lost Games 3 and 4 to push their overall skid in Atlanta to 13 before holding the Hawks to 33.3 percent shooting in an 81-73 victory there May 3 that clinched the series in six games.
The Pacers won't have to worry about Horford, who is expected to miss the rest of the season after suffering a torn pectoral Dec. 26. The two-time All-Star has averaged 18.2 points and 11.2 rebounds in 12 career home meetings -- including last postseason.
The Hawks have won only two of six since Horford went down, beating Charlotte at home 118-116 in overtime Dec. 28 and winning 92-91 at Boston on New Year's Eve.
Atlanta has averaged 90.0 points on 40.7 percent shooting -- including a 31.3 clip from beyond the arc -- during its three-game losing streak, much lower than its season marks of 102.1 and 45.9.
