Props to Indiana. We all had fun of Roy Hibbert and we still can because he still hasn’t touched 10 points in the Playoffs. But it’s not as funny if Indiana start winning games.
Yes, they’re winning games. They’re now even Steven with Atlanta and I really can see this going 7 games.
Even though Hibbert is shot, Indiana are coping without his 15-10 average he got last year in the Playoffs. George and Stephenson are picking up the rebound slack by grabbing 19 boards between them.
On Atlanta’s side, they were in it till the end but couldn’t pull out the W. Millsap led the game with 29 points. Jeff Teague has been beast the past three games but took a little step back from current form. 14 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists but his four turnovers really did him in.
With Indiana finding themselves without Hibbert’s usual numbers it’s up to Atlanta to answer back in the right way.
Game 5 is on Monday back in the Fieldhouse.
