Roy Hibbert stats can sink Pacers in NBA Playoffs? Which Hibbert will show up for postseason? [VIDEO]

Right before the eyes of Indiana Pacers fans, Roy Hibbert's premonition is painfully coming true.

IndyStar.com reports that the one-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year frontrunner taped an episode of The Pete Homes Show during All-Star Week that actually aired earlier this week where he pronounces to the TNT host "my game is looking weak."

That would be an understatement for the way 7-foot-2 center has played for much of the second half of the season, particularly over the last 13 games when he's shot only 29 percent from the floor and averaged just four rebounds.

What's more, the Eastern Conference All-Star has also become somewhat of a distraction in the locker room, openly complaining about his touches and being benched by coach Frank Vogel for the entire second half of a 107-88 April 6 home loss to the Atlanta Hawks because he spent most of the halftime break watching clip of teammate Solomon Hill.
