10 Teams In 10 Days 2013-2014: Rank #8


At number 8 on our rankings, the Indiana Pacers. Getting better every year, the Pacers have a lot of hype surrounding them.

Ranking 1st in the NBA in rebounds per game (45.9) and 2nd defensively allowing only 90.7 points per game; I would say that the hype is real.

The only problem I see with the Pacers is their depth. They have a fantastic starting lineup, but a very weak bench. Scoring only 94 points a game, their bench is to blame for the lousy offense. Hopefully  the addition of Luis Scola will help them out a little bit.

Danny Granger coming back will be a HUGE boost for the Pacers. Add him to go along with David West and Paul George offensively and Roy Hibbert getting "bounds like Macy" and blocking shots on defense, this team has a very good shot at going all the way.

The Pacers just seem to come up short every year. They have battled injuries every year and once again they may not be deep enough to compete with teams like the Heat, Nets, and Rockets. Therefor, they come in at #8 in the Houstonbias ranking system. Tweet me about it @Rocketsbias
