March 17 -- Plan on watching the Blazers-Pacers game (7 ET, ESPN) on Wednesday. Then watch this video clip of Portland and Indiana squaring off in ESPN NBA Basketball.

The Blazers are on a four-game winning streak and are less than two games out of the final Western Conference playoff spot. The Pacers are 10-3 since the All-Star break and have the best record in the NBA. The Blazers are 16-8 against the Eastern Conference this season after a victory Tuesday in Milwaukee.

Will the Blazers make it 17-8 or 16-9?

According to the ESPN NBA Basketball simulation, Jermaine O'Neal's stellar performance -- 31 points, 17 rebounds and two blocks -- was enough for him to receive Player of the Game honors. Thanks to his effort and Ron Artest's 22 points, the Pacers built on their best record in the NBA with a 96-91 win.
