08:10 AM ET 08.06 | Danny Granger wore a smile, but he still thinks about how things ended. Like everybody else in the Pacers organization, Granger is eager for the season to start after they were eliminated by Miami in six games in the second round of the playoffs last season. "Still not over it," Granger said laughing about losing to the Heat. "I'm over it. It happens. They were the better team. ... Granger believes they've got the second best team in the conference behind the Heat. Granger believes they've got the second best team in the conference behind the Heat. "It's going to be tough," he said. "Brooklyn, they are going to be a threat. Obviously Miami is going to be there, but I think we still view ourselves as a top-2 team in the East."

That's HILARIOUS!

I can see it now "Next on SportsCenter, Danny Granger sits down with us and recaps an awesome season in which all their dreams and predictions came true when the Pacers finished second in the east. Let the parade begin!!!"

The Pacers may be the second best in Indiana, but that's about it.

Pacers are joke beginning w/ drafting plumlee in the 1st round. Dude won't get off the bench, he'll be in the D-League before Christmas.

Granger will take the heat on this one. Watch the posters question him and laugh. At least he is confident. You better let your game do the talking next year...

Yep - he's gonna catch hell if they finish 3rd.

I used to think Granger was a quiet workman-like player....ever since he's gotten a hint of spotlight, he's changed my opinion totally. Now he comes off as a loud mouth punk, looking for headlines...how bout you make it to the conf championship first?
