Anyone glad we didn't get Hibbert now?

[santeesioux]

His statline tonight : 9 minutes, 0 points, 0-5 fg, 0 rebounds, and 1 turnover, and he's supposedly been playing like garbage for several months now, and then there's this:

Candace Buckner ‏@CandaceDBuckner 3h
Hibbert was watching "King of the Hill" promo while teammates focused in. Very, very poor body language from one of the "leaders" of this tm

Guy just sounds like a horrible teammate, and i'll go so far as to say Lopez is better at this point, at least he gets up for games against teams other than the Heat.

Yeah, we don't anymore players with bad body language. The season is a marathon but stay professiona.

Speaking of defensive centers, look for Gorgui Dieng to become an NBA defensive player of the year sometime in the near future.

The Pacers are in freefall mode. Everyone should blame George's baby scandal, Hibbert caring too much about his crotch and the greatness that is Hank Hill and Bynum for being Bynum.

Hank Hill certainly had his moments!

I think trading Granger might've been an equal contributor.

...I am very glad, RoLo for life!

I was thinking just today that we dodged a bullet with Hibbert and his contract ..Lopez, pay the man, he's a keeper.

 

[KingSpeed]

Has Antonio Davis stolen DPOY from Hibbert?

Also, I started a thread about Lopez being better than Hibbert and was laughed at. Lopez is much better.

 

[KingSpeed]

Wow. Hibbert was a -19 in those 9 minutes!

 

[PapaG]

Now that would be a story! I didn't know he was still in the league.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

That's more than -2 per minute! How the hell do you do that?!

 

[julius]

Both Portland and Indiana fell off their early season pace, while Miami and San Antonio moved to the top of their conferences.

Portlands descent was kind of expected, not so much Indianas.

 

[riverman]

Indy is playing with a fragmented locker room and it's not a good thing. Guys who really don't trust each other.

Who knows how Hibbert would have played? This lockerroom may have lifted his game the way it lifted RoLo's.

 

[RoyToy]

Like I've said before

Over half of Hibbert's reputation has come from destroying the Heat in the playoffs, mainly because they don't have a center. He looks like freaking Wilt Chamberlain against them and his averages per game are way up.

When he plays against real centers that can match up with him he's still good, but his averages go back down to his career 12/8 numbers on <50% shooting.

Hibbert is SO much better than Lopez. For one thing, he's heavier. He can be a classic center if taught to by a coach.

If only we had Hibbert.

 

[jlprk]

He's a bargain right now. Maybe we should offer Pritchard Claver's contract. Remember who drafted Claver.

 

[jlprk]

This isn't funny. I love Lopez. I love long hair. Lopez does the work and Aldridge gets his rebound. It's all Lopez preceding many Aldridge rebounds.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

If we had Hibbert, we'd be a top 2 seed in the west and a 60 win team.

 

[THE HCP]

Pacers are falling apart! Watched their last couple games and they are out there all yelling at each other after the other team scores! Thought they were the chosen ones.

Thank you, Paul, for getting rid of Pritchard. And his bad luck.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Indiana just needs to let the cake bake.

Calm waters.

1. Granger sucks now.

2. Granger is injured again...

 

[THE HCP]

Interesting how there nosedive started since his trade. Maybe he was the glue when it comes to the team chemistry

 

[magnifier661]

Don't know guys... I think hibbert would have a field day with Aldridge playing

 

[Natebishop3]

I would still love to have Hibbert.

Honestly, from some of the things he has said publicly, I think the guy is pissed at the selfishness of some of his teammates. The dude usually plays hard.

 

[Rhal]

Hibbert is an amazing defensive center. Last year he was great and the beginning of this year he was playing at an amazing defensive level. Making great rotations never being out of place and his mere presence in the paint was causing an Orlando Dwight Howard type effect on players attacking the rim.
During this collapse his D has been horrendous. Making bad rotations and being out of place all the time.
Hibbert is worth a max contract and is one hell of a player. He is simply playing poorly much like almost all the pacers.

This is the problem with peaking too early, as we've seen with the Blazers. It's hard to sustain that kind of play over 82 games. Especially for a young team.
