Indiana outscored the Wiz 31-15 in the fourth quarter and Granger led all scorers with 27 points. The Pacers finished with a 58-32 edge in points in the paint and a 55-41 rebounding edge. -Folks have asked about trade rumors as we head towards the Feb. 19 trade deadline and here's what I can tell you: Ernie Grunfeld is taking and making calls but isn't actively shopping either Caron Butler or Antawn Jamison.
