He was playing SG before Granger got injured.

Top 75 All-Time
At age 21 T-Mac was averaging 27ppg. At age 22 T-Mac was averaging 26ppg.
I don't see the comparison.
Paul George reminds me of Rudy Gay.

i didnt say that hes as good as t-mac. i was comparing them stylistically.
paul george & rudy gay look like they have the same barber.
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
At 23(3rd season) my nikka was an all-star leading the league in total points scored.
What are point are you trying to make? And why are you bringing up Pierce's season at the same age like that even matters for what the thread was made for?
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) to the 25 ppg mark.....he will easily be in the bron / durant overall statistical range.
Granger for Rose straight up
This post started out good, and I even clicked the dap button til I got to the part where you're talking about him making the jump to 25 per game.

yeah, but he didn't start beasting til after he got hurt and moved to the SF position. the league is deep as hell with SF. but thirsty for young SG's. he could really maximize his dollars playing SG and get a joe johnson type pay day. personally, I dont think his ball handling is good enough to be an elite SG right now.
The PG position is deep in the NBA.
The wing positions are not. George is top 10 as a SF right now.
At age 21 T-Mac was averaging 27ppg. At age 22 T-Mac was averaging 26ppg.

george @ in his 2nd yerar got farther in the PO than any team in tmacs career..
george is the leading scorer on te pacers and there 2nd in the EAST...
Tmac - never lead a team..
George is already more of a winner than Tmac ever was or will be

Why? Is 25+ ppg, 8 rebounds, 3-4 assists not in their territory?
I just don't think he's ever going to average 25ppg breh.
I think he's good, but don't think he'll be THAT good.

He's improved his scoring every year and has shown no reason to think he'd slow down anytime soon. Given his slow start as the team was learning how to gel without Granger, he's been averaging over 20 points over the most recent span of the season.
He still has tons of room for improvement and hasn't even got close to his peak. Id expect him to be in the 23-24 ppg mark by next season honestly

Overall Nice Guy
Knew George was gonna be a star.
Crazy part is its not like he slipped in the draft, at the time where the Pacers picked him was way higher than most expert draft boards. He was projected in 12-16 range but went 9th I believe.
