Wrong.

Bynum had 16 points on 12 attampts.

Hibbert had 18 points on 13 attempts.

Bynum was doubled constantly while Hibbert received few doubles at all.

Not to mention people underrate Hibbert. He's played very solid ball this year.

Another round to thanks to our heartless, gutless and clueless bigs. Wonderful job on the boards. Nice job being alert Drew. Nice defense too. Hibbert punked your arse worse than Dwight tonight.

Post game show hosts talking about how Hibbert dominated the game and took over in the 2nd half...with a broken nose.

Need, need, need some rebounding from our bigs. Bynum has to do a better job making decisions with the ball, but he played well offensively. Pau filled the stat sheet in meaningless fashion.

Drew needs to go see the Wizard and ask for a heart and a brain.

should the 2nd best C in the league need double to help defend? Please Bynum points came by way of others setting him up with spoon feeding, Hibbert took Bynum on the block every time.

Hibbert is 7'2. He's one of the few bigs that's actually taller than Drew. And he did a good job positioning himself. Could Drew do a better job denying position? Sure, but it wasn't like he was playing against somebody smaller than him.

Bynum was doubled just about every time he caught the ball, so of course not all his points come from postups.

It was the 3 pointers that hurt us in this game. Not Hibbert.

Point still stands...there is NO 2nd best C, its Howard and everybody else, if Hibbert didn't actually have broken nose he would've posted even better #'s.

Yeah. A lot of folks aren't aware of how good Hibbert is. I'd rather he take and make a bunch of shots against us rather than having their shooters burn us from outside.

Bynum can score 29 point games playing 1 vs 1. Hibbert has an 18 point game playing 1 vs 1.

He's good. But if he were as good as Drew, he'd be getting double-teamed more often.

Hibbert w/ Bynum on court
5 rebounds
6-10 FGs, 12 pts
3 ast
1 TO

w/ Bymum off court
3-3 FGs, 6 pts
3 boards
1 ast
1 TO

Hibbert was good against Bynum, but not exactly awesome. And he was clearly more effective when Bynum was offcourt. He hit all of his shots.

pau needs to go. he just needs to be off this roster while we all still have fond memories of him. the longer he stays the more his image is tainted.

ship him for something, or just a group of players willing to come in and produce. he's not doing anything anymore and hasn't for about a year now

stromile swift>pau right now

dude seriously? Bynum was not getting DOUBLE EVERYTIME, you'll just say anything to make this guy look good, Hibbert got way better position on him, forget height, height wouldn't affect how Hibbert gets positioned.

Hibbert isn't a bad player. He's given Pau problems in past games against Indy. But for anybody to say that he's on par with Bynum is just silly.

You're either lying, or you didn't watch this game. Take your pick.

those 12 pts came by way of straight posting up on him as oppose to Bynum who had that 1 bucket where Hibbert flopped the other points came by way of others setting him up for easy points.

Everybody, pls stop arguing... i don't care about it.
No matter what happen, i still love my Lakers~

You're either lying, or you didn't watch this game. Take your pick.

2 possesion in 1st qtr, Bynum 2 missed hook shots (No DOUBLE)
1 possesion in 1st half, post up West SINGLED coverage, a few dribble to back him up and he picks up the ball to pass it out that leads to a TO (No Double)
1 possesion in 3rd qtr where Hibbert FLOPS and Bynum gets easy dunk (No DOULBE)

so NO, he was NOT DOUBLED EVERYTIME.....

I said "just about everytime". Not everytime. He was doubled far more than Hibbert was.
