Re: 2014 Playoffs: (1) Indiana vs. (5) Washington

The count, above three minutes, for Darko and Hibbert is two and six respectively.

Joel Anthony has 28.

Leader since 1986 is Jason Collins with 40 then Tree Rollins and Greg Kite with 38 and 36.

EDIT: A thing got unchecked probably by user error, the counts are actually for starting and playing more than three minutes:
Hibbert: five
Darko: two
Dare: zero

Collins: ten
McIlvaine: ten
Chris Dudley: five
Jerome James: five
Joel Anthony: three

So Dare > Darko > Anthony > Hibbert.

Sounds accurate to me.

Ah... you all assholes. :lol:

I still think the Pacers can turn this series around with ease. I will stick by my prediction.

I picked Pacers in 6 too, so we're in the same boat. Still could happen.

i think someone forgot to tell the pacers that you need to tank all season long for a good draft pick and not wait til the playoffs

Sums up Hibbert's disgusting performances :lol:

So much for match up excuse in the first round...

He better pick it up in next one or the Heat's three-p(H)eat's guaranteed.

It's bizarre to watch. You can debate his worthiness as an All-Star and all that, but he's at least been solid and serviceable in the past. Whatever's gotten him in a funk, he just can't seem to snap out of it.

Some really funny stuff about Hibbert going around on the internet. The latest is a new worthless currency invented by fans on a Chinese blog called HibbertCoin

Greetings from China! Allow me to introduce Reddit to a brand new currency - the HibbertCoin.
Since the beginning of Hibbert's poor performance streak at the end of the regular season, members on Hupu (a major basketball forum in China) have been finding ways to make fun of him.
After G1 of Pacers and Hawks, one Hupu member "jootoo8" made such comment on the postgame thread that "Omer Asik can be traded for 5 Roy Hibberts." Another member "集苞米的熊" replied "Is Hibbert a unit for measuring trade value and performance now?" A couple of days later, an article that translates the Reddit link "If the Pacers lose in the first round who bedcomes available in trade?" (Yes Chinese NBA fans have been translating Reddit r/nba links into Chinese and posting them on Hupu to see how Americans comment on certain things) was posted and user "SmithKobe" comments below:
"Take '1 Asik = 5 Hibberts' as international norms, David West = 7 Hibberts, George Hill = 4 Hibberts, Paul George = 10 Hibberts, Scola = 3 Hibberts, etc etc. The Hibbert-net-worth of the Indiana Pacers is 46 Hibberts. Let's see who we can get with this much Hibberts."
This comment was upvoted to the comment of the day and the idea of using Hibbert as a unit for trading value has taken over Hupu. Comments like "Hibbert has standardized the system of trade measures. His contribution to NBA equals ‘The First Emperor of Qin' to China." and "The HibbertCoin has circulated throughout the country. It is by far the most stable currency on the market, with an inflation rate of absolutely 0." have made the HibbertCoin well-known and one article that suggests Hupu uses HibbertCoin as its official online currency was put on the home page, making HibbertCoin more popular than ever.
Earlier today the term HibbertCoin has been uploaded to Baidupedia (the Chinese Wikipedia) and is currently pending.
The link below takes you to the Hupu article [Hupupedia: HibbertCoin]. I basically translated the whole page but please visit so you can see pictures of the HibbertCoin.

As one loser showed me they've also been copy-pasting full ESPN Insider articles so it can be translated into Chinese by forum members.
Pay to read Insider articles? lol no fuck ESPN.
Don't know if there's anything good to read on Insider now since Hollinger became Grizzlies GM.

Haha. Hibbert Coin stock just rose up sky high. He's got the game high as of now 15 point (2nd most is 8 by Nene), on 5 for 6 shooting with all around stats.

Better late than never as far as the Pacers' fortunes are concerned.

No wonder Hibbert's confidence is low, he can't even defend his woman from being scored on by Paul George.

...claims that George has been romantically involved with Hibbert's fiancee.

Seems to be the go-to rumour, these days.

Bynum is quite contagious.

Re: 2014 Playoffs: (1) Indiana vs. (5) Washington

Thu May 08, 2014 8:34 pm

Coincidentally the Pacers played better the day after it was announced that Bynum is done for the season...

67 combined points in first half. This is ugly.

EDIT: Wizards are terrible. I can't envision them winning the series at all now as I predicted. Going to be the Pacers vs Heat ECF. It's a done deal.

Re: 2014 Playoffs: (1) Indiana vs. (5) Washington

Sat May 10, 2014 12:36 pm

Why couldn't this Wizards team show up in the first round? This could've been the Bulls, losing to the Pacers right now.

Re: 2014 Playoffs: (1) Indiana vs. (5) Washington

Sat May 10, 2014 12:46 pm

It seems Hibbert regained his confidence too. Their defense once again will pose to be a threat against the Heat.

Well... moving onto the OKC LAC game now.

Re: 2014 Playoffs: (1) Indiana vs. (5) Washington

Sat May 10, 2014 1:55 pm

So Hibbert had 5 fouls, had a decent but not monstrous game and the Wizards still lost wiith a huge margin? Bynum must had been sleeping with half the team's girlfriends/wives for the team to regain their dominating confidence when Bynum was cut.

That was the same ugly shit the Pacers played the start of the season. Same counts for the Wiz. I really can't envision the Wiz winning the series at all.
