Paul George will not be denied this season as he has led the Pacers to the best record in the Eastern Conference and tied for the best record in the league at 16-1. The Pacers are rolling as of late and George, while not the sole reason of their success, is certainly the main cause of their great start this season. So far, George has averaged 23.6 points, 3.3 assists and 6.1 rebounds per game while posting a PER of 23.91 which ranks 11th in the league.  As the leader of an Indiana Pacers team that could go very far in the playoffs, George certainly has come to play this season and it does not look like he has any intentions of slowing down. As one of the best young players in the league, Indiana will be privileged to have him wearing their uniform for many years. Watch out, Miami.
