Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird is not a fan of his team right now. Not only did the Pacers enter the playoffs slumping, but they played three very bad halves to begin their postseason, only bouncing back in the second half of Game 2 to take a split at home.

In Game 3 on Thursday night, the Pacers got out to another rough start. While they trailed just 39-38 at half, that deficit was at five points with 3:54 to play when Roy Hibbert dropped an easy pass that would have been two points. Bird was unimpressed.

Later, it was Hibber himself unimpressed with his own performance.

Hibbert's having a rough go, shooting 2-of-9 from the floor for four points with two turnovers and just a pair of rebounds. He scored just 14 points on 5-of-16 shooting with five turnovers and 12 rebounds over the series' first two games.
