The rest of the team isn't bad but George Hill acts like the biggest choker of all time and Stephenson is like a poor man's jr smith with more attitude not sure why they're on the team.
Best outcome for Rockets fans: Heat win a second consecutive title so they can continue with small ball play, therefore diminishing the possibility of a Bosh-Howard trade. We want the status quo to continue, including the return of Kobe to the Lakers.
I don't get the Stephenson hate. He's one of the main reasons the series went to game 7. When he plays well, the team wins. Should he be starting? Maybe not. But he's a good player and crucial to the Pacers' success.
Trying to move both guys to the bench should be their #1 offseason priority after deciding on David West. This is a complete choke job by the Pacers players and coach. Watching them fold under the ball pressure is like watching Davis vs. Yates (Houstonians should know what I mean). 13 offensive rebounds for the Heat vs 3 for the Pacers, who are playing like girls. Pacers are not playing hard.
I'm sorry it looks like Hibbert is purposely throwing this game. He looks like he mentally checked out this game before it started
He's a mental midget. If you rely on a guy like that, he'll impale you in moments like this. Pacers should see what happens next year and decide whether it's time to cut bait or keep him.
They are barely getting him the ball, Stephenson and hill are just so inept. The commentators pointed it out too.
I like the move to keep Hibbert out there. Pacers have to cut this to 10 by end of third to have any chance. Otherwise, just not explosive enough.
