Bobcats-Pacers Preview

The Indiana Pacers are looking for a boost after opening their longest homestand of the season with a pair of overtime losses. It turns out they won't get one from Danny Granger - and maybe not from David West, either.

The Pacers originally hoped Granger might make his season debut Wednesday night, but an illness will keep him off the court as they host the Charlotte Bobcats.

Granger has spent the first 3 1/2 months of the season recovering from tendinosis in his left knee. He went through a second full practice Tuesday, making it seem his return could come in this game, but coach Frank Vogel said after Wednesday morning's shootaround that Granger stayed home with flulike symptoms.

Vogel added that the veteran forward, who has led the team in scoring in each of the previous five seasons, is not "quite ready" to return.

Indiana (31-21), which hopes to have Granger back after the All-Star break, also might not have West available after he missed the morning shootaround with a scratched left eye. West, averaging 17.2 points and 7.6 rebounds, will be a game-time decision.

His potential absence certainly would make it tougher for the Pacers to avoid a third consecutive loss.

Indiana had won five straight and 15 in a row at home before beginning a five-game stay at Bankers Life Fieldhouse with Friday's 100-98 overtime loss to Toronto. Three days later, it lost to Brooklyn 89-84 in extra time.

The Pacers missed their final four shots in regulation Monday and let the Nets rally from a four-point deficit in the final 1:03. They then made just 2 of 10 shots in the extra period and finished shooting 34.4 percent - their second-worst showing in Indianapolis.

Paul George was 1 for 10 with five points, while West had seven on 2-of-11 shooting after being poked in the eye early in the game.

"Today was that day that things just didn't fall," said guard George Hill, who had a team-best 22 points on 9-of-18 shooting. "You can't be upset about it. We got great looks, especially late in the game."

Indiana will try to bounce back against a Charlotte team it's defeated 11 of 12 times. The Pacers have also won eight straight home meetings with the Bobcats (12-39), the latest a 96-88 final Jan. 12.

West recorded his first career triple-double in that game (14 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists), and he was one of four players to score 15 or more points in a 103-76 rout in Charlotte on Jan. 15.

The Pacers also held the Bobcats to 34.7 percent shooting in that one and have allowed an average of 82.0 points on 37.0 percent shooting in the last six in the series.

Charlotte shot 36.5 percent in the season's first matchup Nov. 2, but Kemba Walker scored 30 to lead the Bobcats to a 90-89 victory.

Walker had 18 points Monday while Byron Mullens scored 25 to go with a career-high 18 rebounds as Charlotte snapped a seven-game skid with a 94-91 victory over visiting Boston.

"We need that from Byron and he can do it. We know he can do it every night," Walker said. "When he has big games like that, you know, I think that gives us a much better chance."

Mullens, who missed the two games against Indiana in January due to a sprained ankle, is averaging 17.6 points in five games after being sidelined the previous 5 1/2 weeks.

George, Hansbrough lead Pacers over Bobcats 101-77

Posted Feb 13 2013 11:57PM

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Paul George knew he needed to have a good game after the way he played Monday night.

George posted his first career triple-double with 23 points, 12 rebounds and a career-high 12 assists, and the Indiana Pacers snapped a two-game losing streak with a 101-77 rout of the Charlotte Bobcats on Wednesday night.

The All-Star forward bounced back after being limited to five points on 1-of-10 shooting in an 89-84 loss to the Brooklyn Nets two nights earlier.

"It came in the course of me trying to do whatever I could, not only to win the game but to try to extend the lead," George said. "I knew I needed a big game. I didn't play well at all (on Monday night) and didn't help, I thought, to win that game.

"I wasn't having intentions of coming out and having a triple-double, but I knew I had to be more aggressive this game."

Tyler Hansbrough tied a season high with 19 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for the Pacers starting in place of David West, who was sidelined by an eye injury.

"I feel like I can get a better rhythm coming straight from warm-ups," Hansbrough said. "Also I think a little more focus. I'm not going in and trying to force things. Just relaxed and letting things come to me. I think relaxing and letting the game come to me is a big deal."

Pacers coach Frank Vogel was pleased with Hansbrough in his first start of the season.

"Tyler Hansbrough is a starting power forward in this league," Vogel said. "He proves every chance he gets what he can do."

Byron Mullens led the Bobcats with 19 points and Gerald Henderson chipped in 14.

The first quarter started as a shootout with Indiana and Charlotte combining for 59 points on 55.6 percent shooting. The Pacers held a 30-29 lead after the first before limiting the Bobcats to 23 percent shooting (14-for-61) over the final three quarters.

"We had no running game," Henderson said. "We didn't defend the ball that well, they got it into the paint a lot on us, their bigs are tough even though they didn't have David West tonight they're still a very physical team.

"We feel like we are at our best when we get out in transition. We think we're improving in the half-court game. Tonight our shots just didn't fall for us."

George opened the game with a corner 3-pointer and finished the opening quarter with 11 points.

The Pacers stepped up on the defensive end in the second quarter, holding Charlotte without a field goal for nearly three minutes and to only 17 points in the quarter on 5-of-20 shooting. But Indiana's offense didn't fare any better with 19 points in the second.

Indiana closed the first half on a 9-2 run and started the third with an 12-6 stretch that included a tip-in from Roy Hibbert, a transition jumper from George Hill and a two-hand dunk by Hansbrough off a pass from Hill.

Orlando Johnson gave the Pacers their biggest lead of the game - 70-60 - on a free throw with eight seconds left in the third quarter. The Pacers ran away in the fourth quarter with little resistance from the Bobcats, who were outscored 52-31 after halftime.

"You have a tale of two games ... in in the second half we had to keep our focus," Bobcats coach Mike Dunlap said. "It isn't like we had to make major adjustments. So there were 50/50 balls, taking charges, and being attentive and alert.

"So for me it was very disappointing being on that side of it."

Notes: The Pacers were only 6-for-19 from 3-point range, but Hill was a perfect 3-for-3. ... Bismack Biyombo had 16 rebounds and four blocks for the Bobcats.

Notebook: Pacers 101, Bobcats 77

Conrad Brunner, For NBA.com
Posted Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:48 PM - Updated Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:48 PM

THE FACTS: He'd done just about everything else in this remarkable breakout season, so Paul George ticked another box on his list of things to do before the All-Star break. Indiana's emerging young forward produced his first career triple-double with 23 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists to spark the Pacers to a 101-77 rout of the Charlotte Bobcats Wednesday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The Pacers (32-21) played without starting power forward David West (scratched left eye) but Tyler Hansbrough filled the void nicely with 19 points and 10 rebounds in his first start since the 2011 playoffs. Indiana snapped a two-game losing streak and heads into the break atop the Central Division and third in the Eastern Conference. Charlotte (12-40) was led by Byron Mullens' 19 points and Bismack Biyombo's 16 rebounds, but lost in Indiana for the ninth consecutive time.

QUOTABLE: "I knew I needed a big game. I didn't play well at all [in a loss to the Nets Monday] and didn't help, I thought, to win that game. I had to have a better game. I wasn't having intentions of coming out and having a triple-double, but I knew I had to be more aggressive."

-- Paul George

THE STAT: George becomes the third Pacers' player with a triple-double this season, joining Roy Hibbert and West. Prior to this season, the Pacers' last triple-double was by Jermaine O'Neal in 2003.

TURNING POINT: The Bobcats hung around for most of the game and trailed just 66-60 late in the third quarter when the Indiana bench took over, producing all but four points in an 18-4 run that broke it open -- giving the Pacers an 84-64 lead. Charlotte made just one field goal in a span of more than six minutes during the run.

QUOTABLE II: "Tyler Hansbrough is a starting power forward in this league. He proves every chance he gets what he can do. Jeff Pendergraph is a rotation player. To get 29 points, 18 rebounds out of those two guys is very impressive."

-- Indiana coach Frank Vogel

GOOD MOVE: Though he told the team after the morning shootaround he planned to start Pendergraph in West's spot at power forward, Vogel changed his mind during the afternoon and decided to go with Hansbrough instead. The result was the Hansbrough's best game of the season.

BAD MOVE: When Hibbert picked up his fourth foul early in the second half, Vogel left his center in the game, but he picked up his fifth less than three minutes later and headed to the bench for the rest of the night. Fortunately for the Pacers, Ian Mahinmi came off the bench to provide 10 points and five rebounds, minimizing the impact of Hibbert's absence.

HOT: George had 10 of his rebounds and seven of his assists in the second half. ... Hansbrough had been mired in a shooting slump, going 2-for-15 in his previous four games, but was 8-for-13 against the Bobcats, racking up his 19 points in less than 24 minutes. ... Pendergraph had 10 points and eight rebounds off the bench.

NOT: Charlotte centers Biyombo and Brendan Haywood combined to shoot 1-for-13.

QUOTABLE III: "Yeah, I take the onus on that. I [stunk] on my rebounding tonight."

-- Byron Mullens

NOTABLE: The Pacers had hoped for Danny Granger to make his season debut tonight, but he came down with flu-like symptoms and was unable to go. His return from left knee tendinosis will be pushed back beyond the All-Star break. ... West, who sustained his eye injury in the first quarter of Monday's loss to the Nets, missed his first game in two seasons with the Pacers. ... With a 21-5 home record, the Pacers have assured a winning home record for the 24th consecutive season, the league's longest active streak. ... This was Hansbrough's third double-double of the season. ... Pendergraph has 24 points in his last two appearances after totaling 28 in his first 16 outings. ... Since starting the season 6-4, the Bobcats have gone 6-36. ... In winning three of four meetings this season, the Pacers held advantages of 213-155 on the boards, 184-92 in the paint and 76-41 on second-chance points.

UP NEXT: For the Pacers, Feb. 20 vs. New York, Feb. 22 vs. Detroit, Feb. 23 @ Detroit. For the Bobcats, Feb. 19 @ Orlando, Feb. 20 vs. Detroit, Feb. 22 vs. Chicago.
