The Indiana Pacers are running a new offense this season and the scheme will allow C.J. Miles the opportunity to take more shots. From Nate Taylor of The Indianapolis Star:

"A new offense installed by Indiana Pacers coach Frank Vogel has been fun for Miles to learn. The system, predicated on skillful players and space, has shown Miles what might be possible during the regular season, which starts Wednesday. Miles, with the help of Paul George, Monta Ellis and George Hill, could be one of the rare players in the NBA this season who could have some of the most clean looks from the perimeter. If he makes those shots, especially his 3-pointers, the Pacers could be explosive on offense. The preseason showed him that. 'In the beginning, I was so wide open I was shooting the ball so fast because I was like, ‘Oh, I’m open,’' Miles said with a smile after Monday’s practice. 'Now, it’s about finding a pace and time. That was something we had been talking about coming into training camp: playing the system and playing this way with those guys. My job is to make those shots, because it makes those guys’ jobs easier.'"

Miles is a natural shooting guard, but with Granger shifting to power forward, he will start at small forward. The rest of the starting group includes Hill, Ellis and Ian Mahinmi.
