After an ugly loss to the Atlanta Hawks, the Indiana Pacers were looking to rebound in Memphis to avoid consecutive losses. Sadly, it didn't happen as the Pacers lost two games in a row for the first time this season, in a 98-92 disappointing defeat from the Grizzlies.It was All-Star Roy Hibbert versus All-Star Marc Gasol, two guys who aren't the best players on their team against each other. Then there was Danny Granger and Rudy Gay, surprising snubs who are the best players on their team. It was pretty interesting.All joking aside, it was a close game to the finish. The Pacers jumped out to a fast start at 46-41 before Memphis surged back to tie it up at halftime. The Grizzlies would continue rolling into the third quarter before it was a tie game at the end of the quarter at 73. In fact, it was a tie game at the end of each quarter until the fourth.Towards the end of the game, the Grizzlies took an intimidating 86-77 leading. However, David West was having ...

Pacers Center Stock Watch: 2/5/2012 – 2/13/2012 - Pacers CenterStarters Roy Hibbert. The week started out good for Hibbert. A 17 points 10 rebounds game against Utah was the highlight of the week along with being named to the All-Star team, but then things went south for the 7 footer. A lackluster performance against Atlanta, followed by a 1-7 shooting night against Western...

Forgot to post about that awful loss to the Hawks the other night, so here's the highlights.
In short, the Pacers stunk up the joint. It was another one of those lousy efforts that elite teams should never have, even in a crazy condensed season. Should the Pacers be worried? Yes. They are at 17-8, still 4th in the East and very impressive, but as a team they are...

Remember how Pau's brother Marc was included in the deal?
And remember how everyone thought the Grizzlies sold their souls in giving up Pau?
Well, guess which Gasol made the Western Conference All-Star team?
By now, you should know. Marc Gasol is an All-Star. Pau is not. Advantage Grizzlies.
I know what you're thinking. It's just a meaningless game that features...

In the third quarter of Sunday night's NBA game in Memphis, Grizzlies center Marc Gasol was hit in the face with a pass from teammate Rudy Gay during a fast break. However, the ball took a lucky bounce off Gasol's chin right into the hands of Grizzlies forward Marreese Speights, who was waiting underneath the basket for an easy lay-up.
No word yet as to whether Gasol...

Kravitz: Pacers' Hibbert is coming of age
There have been times these past few years when I wanted to give Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert a hug. It would have required a stepladder -- even if he was sitting down -- but after rough games, he was so moribund, so terribly down on himself, you felt like offering a warm embrace and saying, "Hey, big fella, it's gonna be OK.''
