Is Dahntay Jones still starting? I know he got pulled the other night in favor of perimeter players who space the floor better. Also I thought Granger was back? Unless he's out again.

Anyway, this game could go either way. They will push their long range shooting game to keep up with us. We have to watch for their guys heating up on the perimeter. Most importantly, they have some good defensive awareness - meaning Nash needs to not force as much. 7 turnovers from him = loss. I want to see some 2-passer lineups. Hill and Dragic should have the ball in their hands a fair bit to work it coming up the court.

I had a feeling Toronto was going to regret letting Hibbert go in the JO'Neil trade. He's looking real good, and so is Hansbrough.

I don't get why he doesn't get minutes though. He is super productive when he plays many minutes.

Granger is back. He's actually been back for a while now.

"The Pacers (12-25) have yet to lose at home in 2010, and their third straight victory at Conseco Fieldhouse was largely thanks to Danny Granger's first game there since Nov. 27. Granger shot 32.5 percent over the weekend on the road in his first two games back from a right foot injury but was 9 of 19 and had 23 points Monday in a 105-101 comeback victory over Toronto."

If Granger was out, I'd say there is no reason to lose.

That still hurts.

There is no acceptable reason for the Suns losing short of Nash dying on court or something -- knock on wood. I mean seriously, trash team, and we're supposed to be a good team. Get it done, Suns!

Hoping to see a monster game from Amare again. Last year when we played them at Indy, probably Amare's best career game.

the starting lineup for Indy should be: Watson, Head, Granger, Murphy, and either Solomon Jones or Hibbert.
