    Yeah, decent starting lineup, and they have Peja coming off the bench.
    I wouldn't lie... that's just how good their shooters are. However, their weakness is perimeter defense, so you just have to beat them at their own game.

        I was in control until the 4th. For as great as Chris Quinn has been for me since acquiring him, he got 3 quick turnovers to start the 4th on bad passes and it went downhill from there.

            Hibbert Optimistic About Return From Plantar Fascitis



            Roy Hibbert underwent an MRI lastnight on his previously injured left foot. Hibbert has not ran for the past 2 weeks due to the inflammation in his foot but it has since gone down and tests have shown Hibbert can return to the court.

            Hibbert's return could not have come at a better time as Chris Kaman, Chris Wilcox, and Sean Williams have begun to show signs of fatigue; getting pushed around in lastnight's matchup against the Blazers and their young big-man tandem in Greg Oden and Lamarcus Aldridge.

            The 7'2", 278 pound Georgetown alum is currently averaging 5.8 points a game on 51% shooting, to go with 3.9 rebounds and 1.3 blocks a game this season.

            "Roy is a guy who kinda flys under the radar," explained Pacers Head Coach Jim O' Brien. "But he's a big presence in the middle. We are very happy to have him back."

              Injuries:


              Hedo Turkoglu has suffered a broken toe and will be forced to miss 22 days. This comes at a very inopportune time for the Magic as they are barely hanging on to the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference.

                Pacers Manage To Hang On Against Battered And Bruised Clippers

                Starting Lineups:
                T.J. Ford PG Jamaal Tinsley
                Wally Szczerbiak SG Eric Gordon

                Chris Kaman C Marcus Camby

                (33-31) 103 @ 101 (35-27)


                Chris Wilcox recorded a monster double double against the team that selected him 8th overall in the 2002 NBA draft.

                Top Performers:
                Player Of The Game:

                Chris Wilcox

                Quote Of The Game:
                "We managed to get out in front early on against them. Without Baron or Mike (Dunleavy), this should've been an easy win. Instead it was the second game in a row where we've really struggled to close out the other team. We have to step up that aspect of our games with the playoffs drawing closer and closer. Luckily, we were able to make it out of this one alive." - Chris Wilcox

                        He'll be back for my next game against Utah. I mean it though, Kaman gets tired so often lately because of the increased minutes. Hibbert is retarded tall and helps a lot. Having Hibbert and Williams in the 2nd unit is fun. :D

                            Injuries:


                            Joe Johnson recently suffered a lower back strain and will be out for 15 days. The Pacers matchup against the Hawks later this week and this will certainly help their cause.

                                Yeah, the schedule seems a lot easier now than it did in the 1st half of the season.

                                lol yeah, he's pretty beast down there. He towers over everyone it feels like. I've also managed to drain some mid range jumpers with him over the course of the season.
