Pacers 5-0! Best in da league!
They're looking tough. And I see Bulls fans have found something else to complain about, I'm so shocked.

Bulls are awful.
They are really one dimensional. They need to make some moves and there's legitimate optimism for one or two moves changing things because of the parts they have.
In contrast, Indiana may be the most well rounded team out there.
What has to really scare the Bulls after last night is how badly Joakim Noah got outplayed by Roy Hibbert. Noah used to own him, but if Hibbert has progressed to the point where Noah can't even play him to a draw then the Bulls are screwed even if Rose shakes off the rust and gets it going.
Not sure how many saw this with fb on yesterday. Some how the rebuilding boston celtics went into Miami and beat the heat. Check the link and the highlights.

Not that they need it right now, but it looks like the Pacers will be getting a boost soon -

If Granger can come back and be productive it'll create an interesting problem for Larry Bird and Frank Vogel. Insert him as a starter and bring Lance Stephenson off the bench, keep Stephenson in the starting lineup, or deal him and his expiring contract for a less expensive role player, draft picks, or cash?
I'd keep Granger and bring him off the bench. Pacers have a great shot at the title this year and even though Granger is probably nothing more than a spot up shooter at this point he can provide more benefit to Indy than what I think they would be able to get for him in a trade.
