Scouting Indiana:
Problems:
1. TJ is a Cavs killer. If the coaches saw what CP3 did against us, expect plenty of picks set early in transition, before the three point line. This puts us in big trouble against quick point guards.
2. Marquis Daniels plays like Delonte West minus the outside shot when motivated. Hopefully, he isn't too motivated.
Gameplan:
Attack the paint.
They are very shallow up front without Nesterovic. Hibbert will be solid, but he is still getting used to the speed of the NBA. Murphy has been tougher now that he is in the Midwest (as his hair grew out in the Bay Area, his balls slowly began to transform into ovaries), but he won't be able to handle Ben and Hickson's aggression. Yes, this is a good game for Hickson to get some meaningful playing time.
