I think Indiana is kind of unique in that they have a player like Granger, who when he is on, can hold his own against the more accomplished players. But beyond that, they have a center and PG who are capable, an energy PF, and 3 wing players who have length, athleticism and who can hit shots at times. The problem they present is, who do you focus on? Hansbrough is the kind of player who can kill you if you ignore him but he's also the kind of player that its hard to justify giving too much attention...again, its not like there arent other guys. And when you load up on Hansbrough, the Pacers have athleticism at the wings and at PG to penetrate the lane.
The Pacers are a little reminiscent of the Atlanta Hawks team that Boston struggled with in the first round of 2008.
Having said that, I really hope Indiana cools off somewhat. They shot over 50% from 3 and thats a killer if they do that consistently. They had guys like Price making everything.
