Looks like I'm probably the only one on this board who thinks this is the best move possible for the Pacers.
Indy's not gonna have enough scoring up front and George Paul gives them a chance to score and create offense out of that position. I get it 
Waits for Pacers vs GrizzTo dap or not to dap.Despite your lack of knowledge about #Hawkset I actually agree...this move is the best way for Indy to be competitive. Indy's got a Ian Mahinmi, Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill, Myles Turner front court.
While this is true, PG isn't a PF. This Pacers team is weirdly built. I think this maybe a 30 wins at best team. They do have talent though.
He's right, but that's not the issue. The issue is, this team is so poorly constructed. Seems almost like LB is rebuilding.Despite your lack of knowledge about #Hawkset I actually agree...this move is the best way for Indy to be competitive.

We've been at the point of positionless basketball for a while now, I don't see why a 6"9/6"10 perimeter-oriented player can't play at the 4 in certain lineups.
The NBA isn't that positionless so stop it. Sorry but Dennis S can't play SG. While THJr can play SG/SF, he can't play PF unless you are giving up points in the paint in a big way. We might have a lot more versatility but positionless Basketball isn't what this NBA is right now.
The NBA isn't that positionless that a 6"9/6"10 player can't play at the 4 spot?
I don't give a fukk about the German muh'fukka. We're not talking about him.
Please don't fukkin tell me your comparing Tim Hardaway Jr. to Paul George?
if the pacers kept that pick i doubt that would have drafted Kawhi tho :ghhghghg:Pacers going Backwards
Kawhi would have solved these problems
Even worse
paul george aint a damn 4. he complaining one game into it for a reason but please let the pacers do this dumb shytThe NBA isn't that positionless that a 6"9/6"10 player can't play at the 4 spot?

When I say positionless basketball, I don't mean playing Nate Robinson at the 5. Use your brain. For once. Please. Lawd.
He definitely won't be playing at the 4 for anywhere near close to 40 mins a night. They've still got two adequate backups who could both potentially see 10+ mins a game in the frontcourt - pushing George to the 3/2 or to the bench. We'll just have to wait and see how Vogel works him in. I don't think the wear and tear will be as big of a problem as most do. Teams won't be able to control the possession count by working over George with a 4, as there isn't one in the league that can stop him on the other end - which will more often than not force teams to use a small ball lineup.
Only the second preseason game and we're already seeing this shyt unfold with Ilyasova and Tolliver trying to guard him. Getting matched up with these slow-footed PFs more and more - he (and TheColi) might change his tune on playing at the 4.
That might be even worse. Can you imagine PFs chasing Miles around a hunnid screens every possession?I was wondering if teams would be stupid enough to keep their PFs on him instead of putting them on Miles. Spo better not try putting Bosh on him
who am I kidding, of course he is
