Why do the Pacers have a better team when they draft players the Jazz should have taken?

They didn't draft Collison, they dealt for him in a deal with New Orleans, I believe the Pacers gave up Murphy (to NJ) and a 1st round pick.
 
Here are the two main reasons
-The Pacers are better because they have Danny Granger.
-Roy Hibbert is 25 (just wait until Derrick Favors is 25)
 
I think we are currently about as good as Indiana. They play in the East which always provides a few extra wins. I fully expect us to be considerably better than them in two years due to our young 4.

PS, if you're not sold on how good this team's future is, you need to watch the Spurs series again and only watch DERRICK FAVORS!
 
The Pacers are better because their team fits together better and are really well balanced. Each of their 5 starters are equally capable and their games compliment each other well.

They will get beat by whoever they face in the 2nd round though.
 
Also find it funny that the Pacer's are benching Collison in the playoffs in favor of George Hill even though Collison is averaging 4.3 assist in 17 mpg and has yet to commit a turnover all series.

He got 9 assist in 18 minutes played in game 4. The Pacers barely beat the Magic by 2 in OT. I haven't watched any of their games closely, but that seems pretty stupid.

They're up 3-1. I think the current plan is working
 
like alaskin assasin said: they play in the east.

If we were in the east then i believe we would be at least a 6 seed and possibly even up to a 4.
