wow didnt watch the game cos i overslept(game starts at 730am here)but hasnt haslem outplayed hibbert twice in a row already?
This is looking bad for the pacers, if haslem can do that throughout a whole series, I genuinely think it wont go more than 5.

Who would have thought that out of Bosh, Oden, and Haslem, it would be Haslem that shuts down Hibbert.

Don't mind me, just helping you guys out in case you forgot the man reason Hibbert is even on the floor...

There are four centers who merit All-Defensive and Defensive Player of the Year consideration, but my choice remains the same it has been all season: Hibbert. While Hibbert is good but not great by defensive RPM (+3.6), I think that understates his contributions to one of the best defenses in modern NBA history. Indiana's scheme is built around Hibbert's ability to protect the rim. No player who has faced more than 100 shots at the rim has allowed a lower shooting percentage than Hibbert (41.5 percent, per NBA.com/Stats). And that doesn't count the shots that Hibbert's presence deters from being taken in the first place, as the Pacers are one of the four teams that allow attempts at the rim on fewer than 30 percent of opposing shots. Hibbert's use of verticality has been imitated this season but not yet duplicated, and it's a major reason -- on top of everything else -- that Indiana ranks in the league's top 10 in keeping opponents off the foul line.
