The 10 Greatest Moments of Paul George’s Career
By Adam Lukach
Paul George Carries Pacers back from 19-point Second-Half deficit versus Wizards in Game 4 – May 11, 2014
It’s not as fun to write about anything after the Pacers’ slide began last season, but unfortunately, that’s the last time we saw Paul George on the floor, aside from that stupid Team USA scrimmage.
Anyway, after Indiana flailed through the first round against Atlanta to scrape by in seven games, pretty much everyone expected them to lose to the upstart Wizards in the conference semifinals, especially once Washington stole Game 2 in Indianapolis.
The Pacers were able to recover by winning Game 3 in Washington, but when the Wizards raced out to a 19-point lead in Game 4, Indiana needed something
And since it wasn’t going to be Roy Hibbert or Lance Stephenson, and David West was damn tired of trying to do everything himself, PG put the team on his back, dropping in 39 points and hitting 7 threes, all while helping out on the red-hot Bradley Beal and snagging two steals.
He’s not only the only Pacers player capable of doing all of that, but one of the only guys in the league.
