The Pacers had an incredible night. Paul George scored 37 points, including 9 from downtown – yes, that’s NINE – and threw in 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Roy Hibbert was unimpressed with George’s performance, and decided to go with a very unusual triple double. In fact, it seems Hibbert was angry at field goals, shooting 3-12 but blocking 11 shots. And no, that’s not a typo; he finished with 10 points, 11 rebounds and 11 blocks. Between George’s 9 and Hibbert’s 11, we will never forget.
There are no games tonight (the NBA blew its load with 14 yesterday), and I will be busy eating food like any rational carbon based life form on Thanksgiving, so I won’t be answering any questions today. However, since you’re possibly Canadian and don’t know why we are celebrating Thanksgiving a month too late, here are some highlights from last night:
Greg Monroe – He played 30 1/2 min and produced 19 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals. I don’t really need to tout him, do I?
