Memphis is a talented team with great defense that people expected to give OKC a challenge. However, OKC will come out of the series in the end. Pacers on the other hand are imploding. And they are against Atlanta, a team that should not be leading the series.

It's definitely the Pacers. The Hawks have so many bigs that can stretch the floor with Paul Millsap, Pero Antic, Mike Scott, and Elton Brand that the Pacers bigs have no other choice, but to get out the paint and defend these guys out on the perimeter such as Roy Hibbert and Ian Mahinmi, which allows Jeff Teague to attack the rim.
