Somebody need to tell these athletes they gotta wait.

Too much love for the game, man.


Don't sacrifice your health and your career just to get owned by atlanta/cleveland in the first round :francis:

To the naysayers about Paul George coming back, since you feel like it's about logic, let's do some logic.

Paul George broke his leg in August, in which case he had a 5 to 6 month recovery timeframe, but ultimately the idea was for him to sit the season just to be safe. The recovery timeframe has passed, and then some (it's been 8 months) and he feels ready. This is the end of the season and the playoffs will start soon, the Pacers are 3 or 4 wins away from locking in a playoff spot with 6 games left in the season. If they get the wins they need and make the playoffs, they'll probably get bounced out of the 1st round, or maybe even get lucky and make it to the 2nd.

That makes for an absolute maximum of 20 games that Paul George would end up playing, and that's just the ABSOLUTE maximum. This is with 8 months of sitting out, he's done with rehab, has been practicing with the team for quite some time now. It would be better if Paul George played the rest of the season and the playoffs for 13-20 games rather than playing 100+ total games next season.

Really think about it, is he risking his career more by playing 6+ games or 100+? Get smart nikkas. If he thinks he's ready to play then it's better to do it now rather than later, that's why Rose is coming back so soon.

I don't really see the point of him coming back now since they not winning a ship this year, but if he feels right and they gave him the go ahead, let him do his thing.

It will be nice to see what he can still bring to the table at this point
