It would be a great story if the Pacers some how rally together and go on to challenge the Heat again, but I think it would have to be without Hibbert. The dude really has gone full Rick Ankiel. He'll start shooting freethrows into the upper deck soon.
Could this explain it?: Baller Alert reported on Monday that a follower told them about an alleged cheating going on between All-Star wingman Paul George and center Roy Hibbert. The report claimed that George was caught sleeping with Hibbert's wife or fiancée. The source on Baller Mail claimed the infidelity within the Pacers locker room have really affected the psyche of Hibbert, who has been playing the worst stretch of his basketball career this postseason. Moreover, the same issue also ignited the reported scuffle between Lance Stephenson and Evan Turner in the middle of the Pacers' first round series with the Atlanta Hawks. "Do you remember when Lance Stephenson and Evan Turner got into that fight? It was all over Roy Hibbert and Paul George. Lance has been getting all the blame for the Pacers off nights and during that day at practice Lance says 'y'all need to look at Roy's ass, he's been off ever since he found out PG was f****** his b****'," the source stated in his Baller Mail on Baller Alert. "That's when Evan got mad at him for exposing that in front of everybody and that sparked the fight. Roy just walked away without saying anything but ever since then it's been a bigger downfall in his performance on the court." "I don't know for sure, but that might also be the connection to PG's house getting broken into because all of a sudden now he doesn't want investigators involved. Supposedly PG and Hibbert's wife have been carrying on through instagram for a while before they ended up having sex. She felt guilty and told Hibbert and that's how he found out originally. It's bad because PG and Hibbert were really friends." Validity of the Report Validity of the Report The report indicated that the woman involved was not really Hibbert's wife or fiancée, but was merely a jump off of the NBA star. However, the Pacers center was reportedly not happy with George's actions, which might have probably caused the team's collapse as of late. This is not the first time George is rumoured to be involved in this kind of issue. Several months ago, the Pacers star was also reported to have impregnated a Miami stripper while dating Doc Rivers' daughter and falling prey to a catfish scandal. http://****************/articles/551377/20140507/pacers-nba-news.htm

You know an easy way to tell that a story is made up, when it is about somebody sleeping with Roy Hibbert's wife? You can tell just by letting a simple fact sink in to your brain: Roy Hibbert is not married.
That , and the fact that all of that can't possibly explain a 0 & 0 game, the actual drop in skill (Hibbert actually looks to be trying out there) etc..
Bynum? ... Gotta love the playoffs now. :grin: Under-performing team/player? Well then clearly, someone is sleeping with someone's wife, girlfriend, sister, mother, significant other. LeBron's mom and Delonte Rashard Lewis and LeBron's GF George and Hibbert's SO
Roy got extremely upset when the NBA picked the lame Kesha song for their playoff commercials. He just can't get over it. Makes as much sense as those other "explanations"
Proposed this in another thread.... Houston Out: Asik, TJones, 2015 1st, 2017 1st, NYK 2015 2nd, Rights to Papanikolaou Houston In: Kevin Love Minny In: Hibbert, TJones, Rockets 2015 1st, Rocket's 2017 1st, NYK 2015 2nd Minny Out: Kevin Love Indy Out: Hibbert Indy In: Asik, Rights to Papanikolaou This all assumes that Minny believes they can get Hibbert's head on straight, and Love tells the front office he's leaving. Hibbert would be a good fit with Pekovic.
NO WAY minny does that deal. they can get way more than what is essentially 2 late first rounders, a current dead beat center, and tjones, granted a player with some future promise.... they should be able to net way more for love than that...

He's been incredibly inconsistent, or consistently bad. I'll have to see how he does next game to see whether the Indiana can win the series. Indiana can't beat Washington if Hibbert doesn't show up.
