Granger heat checks cost Pacers Game 1
Danny Granger - F - Indiana Pacers
April 16, 2011 - 4:45 PM ET
Danny Granger scored 24 points on 10-of-20 shooting (4-of-8 from downtown) with six rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block as the Pacers lost control of the game late and lost to the Bulls in Game 1 on Saturday.
It was a typical Granger outing, as each made shot emboldened him to take the next one, but ultimately his one-man freelancing act killed his team down the stretch. Because his teammates have no faith that he will do the right thing with the ball, any semblance of offensive framework goes out the window once Granger starts pounding the rock.
