Pacers center Roy Hibbert hasn't sent out a single tweet or posted a single photo on Instagram since the start of the 2014 NBA Playoffs. In fact, he hasn't done either of those things since back on April 2 when the Pacers still had six games remaining on their 2013-14 regular season schedule. So we assume that Hibbert hasn't been checking his mentions on Twitter or scanning the comments sections on his IG in recent days. And that is a very good thing for him. Because over the course of the last week or so, the Roy Hibbert slander has been at an all-time high on social media.
That's particularly true right now. Last night, Hibbert put up zero points and grabbed zero rebounds during the Pacers' loss to the Wizards in Game 1 of their best-of-7 series. And both during the game and after it, social media had nothing but not-so-nice things to say about Hibbert. It actually got so bad that, at one point, we started to feel bad for the guy. To see why, scan through the gallery that we've put together, which features the Internet ethering Hibbert over and over and over again for his poor Game 1 performance. We're praying that this guy has a big Game 2. Or else…

Lost in translation.
Dead
No, really, we're dead.
Never Give Up
Keep dreaming.
From All-Star to Cheerleader
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Hibbert has been a very good cheerleader, either.

That garbage can had as many points and rebounds as Hibbert did last night.
Game On!
Where's the button for "Climb into a hole to avoid social media slander"?
Too Far?
Eh, yeah, probably, but...
Tears
Pacers fans can't hold them back.

Mike Epps doesn't look like he's given up hope…yet.
Zero Points, Zero Rebounds
How many more times are people going to have to pull out this meme during the playoffs?

Look out beeeeeeeloooooooow!
Joel Anthony (With No Arms!) or Roy Hibbert?
"With no arms," though? Damn.

Alert TMZ.

At least he hasn't forgotten how to wave a towel, right?
For a Limited Time Only
Who wants one?!
Simpsons > Pacers
Julius > Roy.
Blame the Monstars
This would explain a lot.

One last time (sorry, Roy!).
