    well at least it seems the pacers are giving problems to good teams, not only us. :eek:

    however, we aren't elite yet until we are at full strength and meshing.

    I don't know about, I remember a year about 2 years ago when the Hawks were barely 30 win team, but they beat the Spurs, Mavs, Suns, Lakers, and Pistons by 20.

    Bad (young) teams are notorious for getting revved against quality opponents at home.

    Mainly, because Granger is a power forward...he could easily overpower or shoot over Kobe or Battier near the basket.

    lmao whoever said granger is a PF doesnt watch NBA what so ever
    Power forward u kiddin me, he is a SF, in case u didnt notice, their PF is murphy and he is 6.8 but he doesnt drive as much as he shoots 3 pts, he attempt 7 threes per game

    They beat the Celtics reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly early in the season where Boston just had a miserable off night (shooting 37%) while holding Indiana to 95 points and 40% shooting

    tonight's game is also a game where the Lakers just fell asleep and weren't prepared to play and got beat


    they're fluke wins, nothing more

    Don't forget to include the Rockets. That was a fluke win as well. We choked in the 4th just like the Lakers last night and the Celtics earlier in the season.

    Pacers are underrated so far this season, because of thier standings.
    this team has a good future and danny Granger would blossom into a superstar :D :D

    Who's not elite? God make them go away. Pure hate.

    The interesting thing that Pacers defeated LAKERS the same way they defeated the Rockets. Tip in the last few seconds.
