(My Sportsbook) - The Philadelphia 76ers will be hoping to pick up right where they left off before the All-Star break when the resurgent club returns to action tonight against the Indiana Pacers at Conseco Fieldhouse.

The 76ers won their final four games prior to the hiatus, a streak that began with a 99-94 home victory over the Pacers on February, and are a Eastern Conference-best 14-4 since January 6. The tear has vaulted Philadelphia into a tie for sixth place in the East standings, one-half game behind fifth-seeded Miami.

In their most recent outing, the Sixers received 24 points and nine assists from point guard Andre Miller in a hard-fought 91-87 win over Memphis last Wednesday at the Wachovia Center.

Andre Iguodala added 18 points, half of which came during the fourth quarter, and Thaddeus Young finished with 12 points and four steals to help Philadelphia close out a seven-game homestand with a 5-2 record.

The Sixers now must play five of their next six games on the road, where the team is just 10-13 on the season. Philadelphia did come through with a 94-92 decision over the Pacers in Indianapolis back on November 14, however, and has taken two of three previous meetings between the squads this season.

While Indiana is well back in the playoff race with a 21-33 record, it has been a tough team to beat at home lately. The Pacers have won nine of their last 11 tilts at Conseco Fieldhouse, including triumphs over powerhouses Orlando and Cleveland earlier this month, and own a solid 15-11 mark as the host this season.

The Pacers still have lost five of their last seven overall games, however, and entered the break on a 122-110 defeat at Milwaukee last Wednesday. Danny Granger, who participated in his first All-Star Game on Sunday, led Indiana with 26 points.

Troy Murphy posted 23 points and 10 rebounds and Jarrett Jack netted 21 points for the Pacers, but those totals weren't enough to prevent Indiana from dropping its ninth consecutive outing on the road.
