| News: Granger scored seven points on 1-of-10 shooting with four rebounds, three assists and one blocked shot in 39 minutes in Indiana's loss to Miami in Game 1 of their playoff series. | Impact: Granger has the unenviable task of being the primary defender of LeBron James in the series, but he also has to make James work on defense and that just didn't happen enough Sunday. The Pacers will have to figure out how to get Granger in a better shooting position, but this may not be a great offensive series for Granger.(RotoWire, ) |
