I don't know if I think Paul George is going to be a number one on a contender type of guy. I think he's really good, and he's been fun to watch in the few times I've seen him, but something about him screams 21/7/3 with good defense. Which is not a bad thing at all, he's a talented kid.

Anyone who watches the Pacers on a more consistent basis than me feel free to chime in.

I would be absolutely thrilled if Paul George ever averaged those numbers for an entire season.

Meh, he's already averaging 17 while playing like garbage to start the season and having a 0 point game thrown in there.

I could easily see the 21 if he keeps up his current confidence. That's a huge if of course.

The Pacers aren't built to need a 20+ scoring 1A. With Granger, George and West all reliable to go for 20 if need be (whoever's hot) and Hill able to consistently get around 15 a game, we're covered. You could throw Hibbert in the somewhere, but I'm pretty sure a Wizard cast a spell on him in the offseason or something.

As I have in the past, I compare this team to the early 00's Pistons. We win with our defense and have enough capable offensive weapons to stay in the game.


Edit: Guess I never answered your question did I? I'd agree with most of your stats. I'd say 21/7/4 with a block and a steal thrown in, with not good but great defense. Could easily seeing the point total go to around 23-25, but he hasn't shown the consistency for me to say something like that yet.

I remember when we drafted George I was like "Who the **** is this guy?". He was the one of the few guys in the first round that I've never even heard of but now he's definitely made a name for himself. If you think about it, I don't think anyone has drafted better than us in the past couple of years(we'll just pretend that Plumlee pick didn't happen).

We've done very good considering we've been picking outside the lotto.

I hated the Plumlee pick and still am not sold on it, but who knows, I've been wrong before. We just seem to be dead set on picking up white hustle forwards for some reason hoping to get the next Foster.

You could argue it.

People talk about OKC and other teams, but we didn't have the easy job of drafting stars with top 5 picks for multiple years.


San Antonio has always been a system people look up to for drafting quality players with mid to late first rounders. But without Tim Duncan on the team I don't think they would have ever fared better than the Pacers record wise.


Point is its debatable.

I think Paul George is averaging something like 25+ the past 5 games, which is great for him.

On a team built like ours, 21/7/3 would be fantastic.

I'm just hoping he can keep it up once Granger is back and Paul has to get slide back to the 2.

It should be fine since he's ok guarding 2's. But if he keeps up this pace and all the sudden has issues once Granger comes back, then we have some decisions to make.

I'd agree with that.

As well as San An.
