Lol I don't mean they're actually the equivalent of them. I mean having them on the floor together is like what Denver was doing to LA by having both of their guys out there.

All four of them were just looking to attack in transition like crazy and use those savvy floaters and stuff.

Ya. Like Tirico said its hard to label Indy. They can play various ways.

They have nobody to guard Wade nor LeBron. Their bigs, while all solid, aren't scaring anyone yet. Their bigs are getting overrated these days by analysts and on message boards. It seems like Indy has become the sexy team out East. Almost overrated in a sense but I won't go that far.

Granger and Dahntay Jones can do a decent job on Bron and Wade.I think the Pacers are athletic enough to help defend the two.

Then you have Hibbert on the inside deterring shots at the basket. When he goes out, Psycho T and Amundson give great effort defensively and rotating to help off the bench. Even Hibbert himself does a decent job rotating and hedging for someone his size.

And really, besides those two, who is scaring you? Bosh is a glorified role player playing alongside Bron and Wade. West on the other side, provides the Pacers with the same thing Bosh gives Miami.

If you asked me before the playoffs I would have been surprised if the Heat lost to the Pacers. But from the little Ive caught of them in their last series, Ive changed my opinion on this team.

David Stern seems like a kind gentleman.

I also like what he said about flopping.

I've always liked Hansbrough quite a bit as a Pacer.

Hibbert saying get that outa here, then Hansbrough on the other end.

This game is entertaining for sure.

Good explanation good sir, I won't further question your surprise level if Indy were to indeed knock Miami off.
