Yahoo’s Ben Rohrbach<\/a> reminds us this morning that the Indiana Pacers are in the midst of a disappointing season:<\/p>\n Three years\u00a0after reaching the Eastern Conference finals for a second straight\u00a0season and two years after Paul George broke his leg during a Team USA\u00a0scrimmage, the Indiana Pacers<\/a> are 15-18, losers of four straight and in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time with a healthy PG13\u00a0on the roster.<\/p>\n And that really bums George out.<\/p>\n …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Maybe I\u2019m just living in the past, of how good we used to be,\u201d George told reporters at practice this week. \u201cAll the guys I had around. I\u2019m still living in that moment, maybe. And I got to put myself into a different team. Maybe I have to do more. Maybe that\u2019s just what it is. Maybe I have<\/em> to do more now. But whatever it is, I\u2019m going to figure it out.<\/p>\n …<\/p>\n “I’ve been getting caught up with officials,\u00a0getting caught up with on-court stuff,” George said after practice Wednesday. “(I’ve lost)\u00a0sight of how fun this game is to me. \u2026 Now whatever happens on the court, I couldn’t care less, as long as I’m having fun and enjoying what I’m doing.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Wow… somebody pass the tissue. The sooner we get Paul George out of Indiana and to Boston, the better off we’ll all be.<\/p>\n But it doesn’t appear Larry Bird is anywhere close to dealing PG:<\/a><\/p>\n
