(and yes he is better than Murray, our coach is just stupid for starting him over Diener)
We are hoping for a PG because:

a) Tinsley and 'Quis Daniels will most likely not be in a Pacer uniform next year
b) I don't see Bird re-signing Murray
c) Diener is a backup, not a full-time starter

We have never had a set PG player on this team since Tinsley is always out, and we need to fix that 1st before we settle the PF/C position (if Jermaine proves he is indeed healthy). Thats why Augustin is a perfect fit for this team. Sure he may be only 5'9, but this team needs a PG to run the team. Augustin-Granger-Dunleavy-O'Neal-Foster next year is nice to me.
