With Murphy, Foster, and Hansbrough out our only bigs are Hibbert, S. Jones, and McRoberts. Hibbert is athletic enough so I expect him to get in foul trouble. Looks like another embarrasing loss in the making...and it's on NBA TV for everyone to see.

You don't try and stop Dwight. You try and stop everyone else. That's how the Pistons beat Shaq and the Lakers. Of course, they were a vastly superior team. I know Dwight's going to get 30 and 20 or whatever, just try and keep the game competitive.

I think this question stands for about 28 other teams in the league on a nightly basis. Seriously, there's only so much we can do or worry about.

You don't need to guard him if Hibbert puts hi in foul trouble. Question answered.

The real question is, who will guard Roy Hibbert?

Dunleavy finally shot something well on the offensive end.

Rush is looking a little more confident on those jumpers.

AJ Price continues to be a nice surprise.

McBob has been stepping up.

If we win this, it'll give us a lot of hope for when the other players come in.

WELL WELL WELL.. Mr Hibbert finally hit his straps against a dominant centre (THE dominant centre) of the NBA. A very good win today, hopefully we caould gat a streak going for a little confidence. Granger gets back soon, who knows is .500 still a possability this season, even .450 will probably get you into playoffs in east

The problem is his fouling. I'm sure he'd be out on the court a lot more if he controls his fouls.

Anyway. yay Pacers!

Hibbert hitting fade away jumpers. Yes.

maybe we can get two in a row
