Some interesting Pacers stats

Pretty interesting stats. I saw this mentioned on twitter, and then i looked it up to confirm it myself.
*Pacers lead the NBA in rebounding with 47.4/game. This is with Hibbert struggling, and Hansbrough playing poorly.
*Pacers lead the league in defending field goal. Opponents shoot only 40.8% when facing the Pacers.
*Pacers are 3rd best at defending the 3-point line. Opponents shoot just 32% of attempted shots from three-point range. Indiana was leading this stat until Golden State knocked down 9 threes last night.
*Pacers rank 3rd in NBA in total blocks, with 7.3/game. Only Milwaukee and OKC are better.
This team could get on a big roll once Granger returns. I wonder how many more wins this team would have if Granger was playing all season?
