CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Roy Hibbert had 18 points and seven rebounds, and the Indiana Pacers handed the Charlotte Bobcats their 13th straight home loss with a 103-76 victory Tuesday night.

 

The Pacers bounced back from Sunday's 11-point defeat to the Brooklyn Nets and won for the fifth time in six games.

 

With team owner Michael Jordan looking on from the bench, the Bobcats lost their fifth in a row. They've dropped 24 of 26 since Thanksgiving.

 

Indiana won this one going away behind some dominant inside play, outrebounding the Bobcats 60-31 and outscoring them 52-22 in the paint, once again exposing Charlotte's problems down low.

 

Paul George had 16 points and 10 rebounds, while David West added 15 points and eight rebounds for the Pacers. George Hill chipped in with 16 points and seven rebounds.

 

All five Pacers starters had at least seven rebounds.

 

Gerald Henderson led the Bobcats with 15 points, while Kemba Walker and Ramon Sessions each had 13.

 

The Central Division-leading Pacers (24-15) have not lost consecutive games since Dec. 9.

 

The Pacers led by 10 at halftime and broke it open in the third quarter as George scored eight quick points to set the tone.

 

By the time the fourth quarter arrived, the Pacers had extended their lead to 26 and the Bobcats appeared completely demoralized knowing they simply had no answers for Indiana's frontcourt.
