you know what else blows? dj augustin. pacers have no bench. it will be their undoing.
This series is tough to watch as it is as I want the Pacers to give the Heat fits for as long as they can and every possession seems to be so important. But the absolutely toughest part is to watch the stretches of games with Hill on the bench and Augustin playing the point. I have to cringe and pray that he doesn't lose the ball when being pressured by Cole every time he takes the ball up the court.
Even if we take the Granger injury for granted, the Pacers could have had a way better bench. They screwed a pooch by signing Gerald Green and D.J. Augustin. Replace them two with some decent signings (I'm not even acting all smart in hindsight by saying that they should have known that you can trust Nate Robinson) like Carlos Delfino and C.J. Watson and I could actually believe that they could win this series. My prediction of Heat in 7 stands.
