Yeah, so in the only game we had our starting C we crushed them, and we split two games where we were hurting to a significant degree.
The only game you are counting then is opening night. Which was Paul George's first real action in nearly two years; Myles Turner hadn't emerged as their starting C; were incorporating a new SG (Ellis) for the first time. So while that first game might be the most reflective of our team (minus Carroll), it might be the least reflective of theirs.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

The biggest issue I have with facing Indiana is how Casey will use JV. Would he play him more, less or about his average? Indiana loves going small (actually they pretty much have to). Biyombo had a 25 rebound night against them when JV was not playing. So is BB gonna get the lion share of minutes?

Sadly, I worry that Casey would give extra minutes to Biyombo, Patterson and possibly even Thompson, if Indy implements a postseason strategy to negate the advantage JV would potentially have.

Sorry boys, but the second season is a new season.... NO TEAM will be an easy team. You get full effort from every single guy, on every single play. Playoffs, if you ask me, come down to effort, chemistry, overall skill level of a roster, star calls, and a little bit of lady luck along the way.
When you sit there, a month out from the playoffs and pick and choose based upon past records etc, you're wasting your time.

MU and the team have the skills and assets to avoid it, but having the ability to do something and actually doing it, are two different things. They need to prove that they can, both winning in the playoffs (team) and building a sustainable contender (MU).
