I agree. It was a solid team effort against Indiana. The whole starting line up had such a great rhythm going. If they keep spreading the wealth and diversifying the statistics across the entire roster, look for them to really make a strong push in the East. I still think Josh Smith has a lot more potential. Right now he's a solid player, but he's capable of being a great player, like Carmelo Anthony.
