    Agree'd

    Hibberts production is absolutely horrid, especially against a 8th seed Hawks team who no longer has Horford or ZaZa.

    Great. The Heat going to get a damn free Rings.

    Just beat the Nets/Raps. Then beat Hawks (I see them beating Wizards). Back to Finals. East is a joke.

    This series is over. The Pacers showed no heart. Hibbert had 0 points, 0 rebounds. PG is the only one who played good consistently.

    I didn't think it would happen, but I'm sure the Hawks will win in game 6 to close out the series.

    That is seriously horrible. I mean it's almost literally unbelievable.

    How is that possible, zero rebounds??? And zero points against a team without an all-star center? Hibbert is choking the worst of all players in the playoffs.

    Sadly, I think the Wizards will likely destroy the Hawks. I'll say 5 games. ('sadly' because it shows how far the Pacers have fallen)

    Finding a new coach. It has to be that.

    The Wizards will destroy the Hawks. Their bigs have the athleticism to keep up with the Hawks and Wall/Beal will have a field day in the paint.

    He's being pulled out of the post to defend guys on the perimeter and he's a big slow center. He's not quick enough to defend the 3 and get back to crash the boards. I'm much more surprised by the lack of points. If he can't score on their small ball lineups then there's no reason for the Pacers to play him.

    Did anyone put money on the hawks? The odds were real good. Whoever did will potentially make some bank!

    It is entirely possible that none of the best 4 defensive centers in the league will advance to the 2nd round. Noah (Chicago down 1-3), Hibbert (Indiana down 2-3), Howard (Houston down 1-3), and Gasol (series tied 2-2).

    I hear it was Dragic. He should've robbed Hibbert, though.

    I don't know why any free agent wouldn't want to go to the East. There is no chance in hell LeBron comes to a Western conference team.

    I agree , With Rose and Melo's future up in the air. Nets are very a old team the Wizards are young. Raptors are young , Pacers..... Not sure where to begin!!
