Yes, injuries do play a big part in that, as we all know, but I feel this team this year has much more depth than last year and more experience.
Some might still call me crazy, but I have a feeling that with that depth and Mike coming off the bench, they'll surprise the league. We all know that Collins & Mike believe in team defense and with a year under Haywood's belt & Etan's and also a soon healthier Jahidi - there is the needed depth to make themselves heard around the league.
I think they have as much depth as the Pacers and imho, they have a better coach and a coach off the bench, too.
