Probably too late for the Pacers to make the playoffs though.

Well, they play Miami tomorrow so that game will have huge playoff implications.

I wouldn't be too sure about that.

Go Pacers

Yep, if Detroit wins against them tonight and then the Pacers on Sunday that would be huge for us, especially since we own the tiebreaker with Indy.

I could see the Pacers going 4 and 2 or even 5 and 1 if the Grizzlies rest their starters in the last game.  However George is going to have to come in strong.  There is no time for him to get acclimated.  The 8th sport may well come down to tiebreakers.

Easy win for Pacers with thug Wade out. I just hope Miami and Indy keep losing. And Brooklyn needs to start losing too!

ughhh...The teams we are competing with to make the playoffs MIA and Pacers both have basically future HOF players(Bosh and PG)coming back. Also CHA has an all star and imo the best scoring big man in the game....which is something in demand.

What do we have? I know Brad Stevens. But next year when we do not make the playoffs(and missed out on our center in this draft), IMO it will sting more and Stevens could just bolt.

Paul George is a future hall of famer now?

I was contemplating changing that. I mean he's a top 7 player in the league and maybe will win an mvp.
I just hate the fact that we are going for the playoff push and we don't have our Paul Pierce type player on the bench or even out from injury. BTW I would take Pierce over PG any day....actually and Bosh toooo.

I'm happy for Paul George it will be great to see him back

It's certainly not out of the question that he would be a Hall of Famer.  He just turned 24 and averaged 21.7 PPG / 7 RPG / 3.5 APG / 36.4 3P% / 2 steals and lead the league in Defensive Win Shares.  He's a complete beast and is only going to get better
