It's terrible what just happen to Paul George, and may god bless him and I pray he can make it back towards the end of the season or atleast next season, if ever. You never want to see any player get injured, none the less of that magnitude.

In reality though, idk if I'm just a green teamer till the casket, but after my thoughts of how terrible that injury was, first thing to mind was ; Celtics are definitely making the playoffs this year. That is another team that is going to struggle and in all honesty with ought George or Stephenson? How are the Indiana pacers that much better then us? If hibbert is the playoffs hibbert or not much better. Our celtics team as constructed is a better team.

One less team we can pencil in as a for sure playoff team.

Bleed green !!!

Too soon.  Not right after a guy gets hurt like that in a World Cup intra-squad scrimmage.

Especially when the guy is playing for our country. Let's hope the reports have been exaggerated and he will be healthy in a few weeks.

if the starting unit registers 50% up 2-pt shooting and 40% up 3-pt shooting per game they will probably in the playoffs.

I don;t want to make the playoffs like this. And we still won't make the playoffs. If making the playoffs means we have to bust a guys leg then I'm out.

Losing Lance Stephenson (FA) and Paul George (injury) at the same time is a massive blow. That perimeter rotation is looking awful weak right now.

I wonder if they will have any regrets about letting Evan Turner leave. He could have been a decent stopgap option until Paul George returned. Nice big role for Turner too while George is out.

The Pacers will be terrible without George and Lance. Like..really, really bad. David West is also turning 34 in a few weeks, and the Pacers have no idea what Roy Hibbert is going to play like. They've lost their two best offensive players by far and two of their top 3 defenders.

This was really unfortunate honestly. I was looking forward to a competitive East this year.

LeBron meanwhile gets another break as the East falls apart around him.

I feel that Washington's the new Indiana...they will give LeBron's Cavaliers a challenge.

Chicago has never been ready.

   That's just how it goes, right? Teams had no qualms about beating us during the playoffs when Rondo or KG were injured.
