his style of play reminds me of T-mac


Tmac led the NBA in scoring when he was 23. He jacked up 24 shots a game. Wasn't known for his defense. Much better shooter than George.

You're basically comparing them because they are both 6'8 and athletic. Their style is nothing alike.

George is no where near T-Mac offensively and is a much better defender.

the worst thing about posting stupid shite on boards is that we have time to research and think it out before clicking submit. now to knock one's comparison and then lay down your own in most cases is shittarded. the ? was not how good or what level of production. it was referring to style of play & highlight moments.

I'm being dead serious when I say this.

Paul George moves around like Stacey Augmon.

So far 3 for Tracy McGrady and 1 for Dominique Wilkins. My fricking god. He averaged 17 PPG while shooting 42%.




I dont get how people ignore his lack of shooting inefficiency.

his minutes increased this year, and efficiency went down.


It's funny that only little guys like Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis or Allen Iverson can be "blackhole" players offensively.


He shot 41% from the field this regular season. The guy is tall and athletic as frick. He should be at 46%+. If anything he is not using his abilities correctly. There is no way in hell he should shoot that poorly.


Going into last nights game, he was shooting 39% from the field during the 2013 playoffs. That is putrid for a guy with his ability.


Calm down with the Scottie Pippen comparisons. And Grant Hill

George is a great defensive player(not this series vs Lebron, but anyway) who shows flashes on offense.

I think people just turn the TV and watch the playoffs, see him send the game into overtime in Game 1 and then dunk on Birdman in game 2.

Holy shite thank you. He isn't THAT good. He's solid as all hell but pump the breaks people. I can see that he's probably a good defender. He's big and athletic and most importantly plays with passion on the defensive end. But do we really need to show Lebron's stat line for this series? It ain't pretty for George.

He's got real potential on offense but it's just not there yet. He's having a really good series and hopefully he keeps building on it but lets chill out with the hype.
