george hill is ok but he is overpayed and nothing more then a backup point guard.


he has his nights but he is way too inconsistant at times, great defender for his size, granger has to go if he will ever flourish as true offensive threat on the pacers.

idk why u nikkas are responding to spudds dumbass who obviously hasn't watched a pacer game this season.

That nikka derailed and fukked up this thread with that bullshyt

Idk why you keep bringing up he's only 22 and has "unlimited" potential. No

Kevin Durant a 22 was putting up and LED his team to the Western Conference Finals
28 and 7

LeBron James at 21 27, 7, & 6 and LED his garbage ass team the NBA finals

Carmelo at 22 was averaging 29 and 6

Not saying George isnt a good player but please wait until you start comparing him to them. The above aforementioned were doing more in their first seasons at 17, 18, and 19 than Paul George is doing now at "22". In fact Paul George's numbers are similar to Luol Deng and Rudy Gay's numbers and they didnt have this "unlimited" potential.
There are some who brought up the "unlimited" potential thing, but I really was just made the thread to say he's in the 2nd tier of SFs.

I wouldn't take the unlimited comments too serious. People just see that he has the tools to keep getting better.

Today Indy was using him as a primary ball handler and he was picking Memphis apart who's a great defensive team. I like his game because of his versatility. He comes off as a player that really has everything you would want at their position though.

Right now, only SF's I will take over PG24 is of course Bron, Durant and Melo. Also, Batum too. But, after that, no other SF is playing as good as him right now. :whoo: If the Pacers can trade Granger for a quality PG or a SG, the Pacers will be a big fukking problem in the playoffs.

I knew I left somebody out. But yeah, he's been playing well this season too.

Paul George with a more aggresive attitude could be a top 10 player in the league. He does so many things well but he's so unselfish. Sometimes you gotta get that ima get mine type attitude.

:ehh: :rudy: had a good start, but he has cooled off and has been pretty average the past month or so. I don't get this cat at all, he literally has all the tools to be a superstar in the league, but he is not. Right now, besides the big 3 of tier 1 of the SF postion, (Bron, Durant, Melo), I would take Pierce, even though he is a bit on the decline, I would easily take Pierce over Rudy. Also, Batum and George, but after that I would take Rudy over Deng, Iggy, Granger, etc. I had Rudy as the 4th best SF, he did great and went toe to toe scoring with Bron and Durant, but he fell off badly though the past month or two. :rudy:

:beli: PIERCE>>>>>GEORGE

PIRU IS STILL A TIER 1 SF WHO GETS IT DONE IN CRUNCH TIME.

PAUL GEORGE IS AN ATHLETIC SPOT UP SHOOTER.
:devil:
:evil:

And this is dude's third season in the league. He doesn not impress me at all.

At age 22(2nd season) Pierce was avg 20/5/3 44fg% and 2spg :obama:

At 23(3rd season) my nikka was an all-star leading the league in total points scored. :obama:

paul george and nic batum are essentially the same player, but i think batum has a higher ceiling now that portland is letting him facilitate more. he could be like a prime shawn marion with a jump shot :ohlawd:

:snoop: at the idiots in here calling him a role player :snoop:

So the leading scorer and defender for the number 3 (soon to be 2) team in the East is a role-player? He's about to make the all-star team , he's been averaging 20pts and 10 rebounds this month against the hardest part of the Pacers schedule, and every year in his career he has gotten better.

Once he makes the Jump in next year (or maybe this one :wow: ) to the 25 ppg mark.....he will easily be in the bron / durant overall statistical range.

Granger for Rose straight up :devil:

can dude play SG? cuz the league is starving for young SG's right now. that would automatically get him a max contract if he can play that position.

If its a big game, im taking pierce all day. That nikka savy as hell, always respected his game. Even though he got them pubes on his face.

Of course if I'm starting a franchise im taking george.

Piru p got the ability to out play any sf in the league on any given night.

shyt he shytted on Melo and the knicks cpl weeks ago. Of course melo will return the favor Thursday.
